C# 7.0 and 7.1 bring new features that can make our code leaner and more readable. In the talk we analyze various examples taken from production code to get an idea on how much "weight" a typical existing code could lose. Beside showing real-life examples, to demonstrate the features we also use the sample code provided here. On top of that the talk discuss performance and potential performance problems that the new features could cause, as well as how the features work "under the hood".
The talk was given at:
- Microsoft Developer User Group Rijeka (Rijeka, Croatia on December 14th, 2017)
- Karlovac Developers Meetup (Karlovac, Croatia on December 12th, 2017)
- Microsoft Developer User Group Zagreb (Zagreb, Croatia on November 22nd, 2017)
- Microsoft Developer User Group Graz (Graz, Austria on October 25th, 2017)
Each new language feature has a dedicated folder within the Snippets project. Each folder contains a Before.cs and After.cs file that demonstrate the code before and after applying the feature, respectively. Each folder contains as well a CompareXYZ.cs file. The code in that file can be pasted into SharpLab. That way we can quickly see how the compiler implements the feature, compared to the original code replaced by the feature.
