| CODE Presents: Intro to AI with MS Semantic Kernel | This CODE Presents event will bring you up to speed on Microsoft’s powerful Semantic Kernel. Similar to the open-source LangChain framework, Semantic Kernel is an SDK for .NET, Python, and Java AI developers, making it easy to integrate AI services like OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, and Hugging Face into C#, Python, and Java. In this presentation, you will learn how to use Semantic Kernel to accelerate your AI coding. Gain insights on abstracting your code, building and using plug-ins, tackling complex AI tasks, and leveraging built-in tools, saving significant time, allowing faster market penetration, and ensuring maintainability in these fast-paced times. Semantic Kernel is Microsoft’s special sauce for building copilots and it can be yours too. Join us to learn how you can orchestrate your AI with Semantic Kernel! | 1 day | Sign-Up |
| CODE Presents: Develop Desktop Apps with Photino, an Electron Alternative! | Discover the power of Photino, a lightweight, open-source framework for native, cross-platform desktop application development with Web UI technology. Photino empowers developers to build lightning-fast desktop apps using natively compiled languages like C#, while seamlessly integrating cross-platform UI frameworks such as Blazor, React, Angular, Vue, and others. By leveraging the OS’s built-in browser control, Photino ensures a consistent user experience across Windows, macOS, and Linux, with significantly smaller app sizes and reduced system memory usage compared to other frameworks like Electron. Join Philipp Bauer, Sr. Software Developer at CODE and Photino contributor to explore the potential of Photino. Attendees of this session will walk out having learned how to build their first Photino app. | 1 day | Sign-Up |

| .NET Conf 2024 Recap - CANCELED! | THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED! - NET Conf 2024 will be the official release event of .NET 9. Join us for a recap of the most important announcements and developments of the event. | 1 day | Sign-Up |
| CODE Presents: Maximizing C# Performance: Advanced Coding Patterns for High-Efficiency Apps | 1 day | Sign-Up | |
| CODE Presents: Possibilities, Limitations and Impact of Generative Image AI | We’ll discuss the limitations and impact of generative image AI. We’ll explain how the underlying technology of state-of-the art models like DALL-E and Stable Diffusion work, how it can be used in combination with other technologies like LLMs and how they can be adapted to specific use-cases. Generative image AI has made significant progress in recent years. Models like DALL-E and Stable Diffusion can generate high-quality images from textual descriptions or from a given input image. This opens a wide range of possibilities for creative and practical applications. However, these models also have limitations and ethical implications that need to be considered. Whether you are a developer, designer, product manager or business leader, this session will provide you with a better understanding of the current state of generative image AI and how it can be used to create new realities. | 1 day | Sign-Up |
| CODE Presents: Why You Should Be Looking at Semantic Kernel to Build Your Copilot | Join Mike Yeager on April 16th, 2025, at 12:00pm CT for a 75-minute webinar on using AI frameworks like Microsoft Semantic Kernel to build copilots and other AI-powered projects. Learn about cloud-hosted models, locally hosted SLMs, automatic function calling, and more, while discovering the pros and cons of using frameworks versus creating your own solutions. | 1 day | Sign-Up |
| CODE Presents: Vibe Coding Done Right: AI-Assisted Productivity with Engineering Discipline | Join CODE's Philipp Bauer on May 7 for a 75-min online webinar about Vibe Coding. Coined by Andrej Karpathy in 2025, Vibe Coding represents a paradigm shift where developers guide AI to generate code from high-level descriptions rather than coding manually. While this LLM-assisted approach enhances productivity and reduces cognitive load, it raises legitimate concerns about code quality and security. The presentation aims to equip senior developers with best practices for leveraging AI coding assistants responsibly, including effective prompting, validation strategies, and specialized review processes. Through these methods, developers can harness AI's efficiency benefits while maintaining engineering discipline and code craftsmanship. | 1 day | Sign-Up |
| CODE Presents: The Future of AI: Predictions, Possibilities, and Sci-Fi Dreams | Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming our world while raising profound questions about its ultimate direction and impact on humanity. Join Dr. Otto Dobretsberger, Senior Software Architect at CODE, for an exploration of AI's future at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and speculative thinking. We hope to see you on June 11, 2025 online at 12:00pm CT or watch the recording. | 1 day | Sign-Up |
