    Microsoft doubles down on Rust (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    After many years of watching how Microsoft develops platforms and rolls out technologies to external users, one thing is clear: anything that is important to Microsoft internally quickly becomes important to anyone building on top of Windows or Azure. The transition from internal to external tooling invariably takes the form of new features in Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code. Often these capabilities have been in use inside Microsoft for years, and they’re ready for you to use immediately i

    MSBuild explained: Understanding Microsoft’s build platform (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Visual Studio is a lot more than an editor and debugger; it’s the host for Microsoft’s cross-platform build tools. MSBuild is one of those forgotten heroes, a tool that’s at the heart of all your development processes, but one that’s hidden behind the façade of your development environments. MSBuild is where your code, libraries, and SDKs are marshaled and delivered to .NET and other compilers. If you’re coding in C#, C++, or any other Microsoft language, and working in Visual Studio or Visual S

    Running AI agents in sandboxes with Microsoft Execution Containers (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    One of the problems facing those who develop agents today, especially when building agents that run on edge systems with a mix of local and cloud AI, is trust: ensuring that the code that runs on users’ PCs doesn’t access private data or call unexpected APIs. How can we keep systems that don’t have predictable operations under control, when it’s that very unpredictability we’re relying on, as they orchestrate calls across local and remote systems, building and running workflows on the fly. If yo

    Introducing G#: A Go-like language for .NET (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Microsoft’s open sourcing of .NET not only has sped up the development of the platform, but also has allowed new languages and features to be built on top of the .NET runtime and compilers. At the same time, the extensibility features of Visual Studio Code make it easy for developers to provide the tooling we need to use those new platform capabilities. One of the more interesting new projects to build on .NET is a Go-like language, G#, that targets both systems programming and mobile applicatio

    Microsoft Web IQ: Ground your AI agents with up-to-date web data (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Microsoft has unveiled a suite of IQ products over the last few months. Work IQ, Fabric IQ, and Foundry IQ build on what Microsoft used to call its “Graphs,” the underlying data architecture that underpins its cloud services. These graphs provided a way to query the data your business uses, treating that data as nodes in a graph database and using the GraphQL API model to extract that data — for example, to pull data related to a specific individual held across the various Microsoft 365 applicat
