NET 7 Is Here! Time To Kick Its Tyres And Take It For a Spin
summary
.NET 7 ships the day before the session with standard support for 18 months while .NET 6 remains LTS until 2024, and Visual Studio 17.4 is required to build. Demos run after a hurried install: C# 11: generic attributes, raw (triple-quote) string literals, list patterns and required members compile and work. .NET 7 adds MAUI single-project apps (map control needs Google key and currently crashes on WinUI), Blazor WebAssembly JS↔C# interop (exported C# methods callable from JS), gRPC→JSON transcoding for browsers, EF7 compatibility with .NET 6, container templates and performance gains.
