Spoiler alert!

As you know, this edition of the Dotnet inevitably moves away from that day in which, in person, we all gathered in the same place and for a few hours became the epicenter of the entire .Net community in Spain. But we will not settle for a series of online sessions, no matter how valuable they may be. Digital events do not have to be all the same, and here are a couple of clues that show that the Dotnet 2021 will not be just another digital event.

Virtual Stage

Every great event has a Keynote. And we all dream of starting with a great Keynote. In the case of the Dotnet, we will have Scott Hunter (!) who will also offer his talk using the Plain Concepts solution developed for Microsoft Build, the Virtual Stage: an application that leverages the power of Azure Kinect and the latest advances in AI to generate immersive virtual scenarios.

But yes, already, the event is not just a Keynote so we couldn’t stop there…

Welcome to DotNet

For this edition, we have continued fighting to make the experience as immersive as possible, and that the fact of having to make a virtual event did not completely eliminate all those things that we love about face-to-face events, so we advance below some new features:

Virtual exhibitors; We all like to gossip the stands and the fact of jumping to the digital format does not have to prevent it. In the Dotnet our sponsors will have virtual stands that you can visit whenever you want and in which, yes, indeed, interesting prizes will still be raffled.

Group chats, real-time questions, live voting; ask, talk, participate in all kinds of voting, etc. We don’t want you to sit and watch the presentations, we want you to be able to participate in the event as much as possible and in this edition you will discover a lot of ways to do it.

Networking and 1 to 1 meetings; This is one of our favorite parts of organizing events. The alternative mini-events that are generated spontaneously among attendees to comment, discuss or just chat in a smaller group. This year you will be able to access small virtual rooms to have an aside with those attendees you want.

WaveEngine meets the web

WaveEngine, our graphics engine focused on the generation of augmented reality solutions for the business sector, is constantly evolving. And DotNet is once again an excellent opportunity to showcase many of these advances. A small (tiny) example can be found in the DotNet 2021 Home. Evergine has leaped to web environments, opening a range of new possibilities for visualization or graphical representations in industrial environments.

All this is achieved by keeping the same .NET code developed to make our applications for traditional platforms (desktop or mobile, for example), and thanks to a light integration layer, it is possible to interoperate with any Web framework that a company may need.

This is possible thanks to .NET 5 and its new compiler called “dotnet-wasm” with the ability to compile C# code directly to WASM to run in web browsers. Microsoft is pushing this technology as the heart of Blazor and we can leverage this to run WaveEngine on the web platform using dotnet-wasm, emscripten, and WebGL/WebGPU. It’s something we’ve been dreaming about for years and now it’s possible.
