November will be the most exciting month for all the .NET developers around the world as new versions of .NET get released during its annual conference, .NET Conf. Quite like the previous years, this time also, it will be hosted virtually and can be joined online. .NET 7 is slated to release at this year’s conference scheduled as a three-day event starting Tue, Nov 8, 2022, through Thu, Nov 10, 2022.
Now updated with YouTube links to replay the recorded sessions.
.NET 7 is a Standard Term Support (STS) release, which will be supported for a period of 18 months. Whereas .NET 6 is a Long Term Support (LTS) release, which will be supported for a period of 36 months (planned till Nov 12, 2024). More details are here.
Sessions are planned across multiple streams like Web, Cloud, and Client.
