Unleashing the Power of AI-Assisted Development
In the rapidly evolving landscape of software development, AI-assisted tools are revolutionizing how developers approach coding. Offering real-time suggestions, error fixes, and test generation, these tools transform the coding process into a more efficient and creative endeavor.
This talk explores the transformative potential of AI-assisted development across three levels of mastery: Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced. We will discuss how developers can harness these tools to enhance their coding efficiency, creativity, and problem-solving skills, unlocking new possibilities at each level of mastery.
Join us to discover strategies for maximizing the capabilities of AI-assisted development and envisioning a future where AI-driven processes lead to ground breaking advancements in software engineering. Learn how to effectively integrate these tools into your development workflow and leverage their full potential to accelerate your coding projects.
Deep Dive into Azure Developer CLI
Do you find the journey from code to cloud daunting? Developers are expected to build local dev environments, provision infrastructure, establish CI/CD pipelines, and more! The Azure Developer CLI (azd) offers best practices and a developer-friendly approach to support you on this journey.
Join this live coding session for an in-depth azd journey. We will start by creating a new app using ASP.NET Core. Then, by leveraging azd, we will provision infrastructure, establish CI/CD, deploy, and monitor the app in Azure. Finally, we will create a reusable template to simplify the entire process for your next app deployment.
You'll gain the skills to work with AZD and build specialised templates. Doing so will elevate your cloud journey by rapidly developing, deploying, and supporting your next app in Azure.
Mastering Secure Coding with AI and GitHub Advanced Security
In the evolving landscape of software development, security is paramount. The 'shift left' approach emphasizes embedding security early in the development lifecycle, enabling developers to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities efficiently. GitHub Advanced Security (GHAS) plays a crucial role in this process, providing tools like code scanning and secret scanning that integrate seamlessly into the developer's workflow.
GHAS's integration with Visual Studio Code allows developers to address security issues directly within their IDE, reducing context switching and enhancing productivity. Furthermore, the synergy between GHAS and GitHub Copilot, an AI-powered coding assistant, offers real-time security insights and code suggestions, accelerating the remediation process.
By leveraging these advanced tools, developers can enhance the security of their applications, streamline their development process, and foster a culture of proactive security. This talk will explore strategies for implementing the shift left approach with GHAS and GitHub Copilot, empowering developers to build more secure software from the ground up.
Practical Clean Architecture with .NET (2-day workshop)
