Forget the adage "speed wins the race"; wise developers know it's all about using the right methods. Like the clever tortoise, we've learned that the key to developer velocity is not about being the fastest but learning the right tools and processes from millions of our developer's inputs.

But don't worry; their bungles have led to our code ninja tool - the Azure Developer CLI (AZD). We'll go deep into the wisdom gained from creating the AZD tooling and show you how to avoid the pitfalls and embrace the path to developer velocity.

You'll leave the session with easy-to-use commands that will take you from creating a local project, a development container, running everything locally and optionally deploying it to the cloud.

This high-energy, fun-filled session will serve a side of SASS and a sprinkle of hilariousness. It's like finding a needle in a needle stack - easy peasy! So join me for how we built our tooling and changed developing cloud apps from days to seconds.
