Technology is constantly and rapidly transforming. Changes can be so many and so frequent that it becomes challenging to keep informed and proactively adapt both individually, as technology professionals, and at a corporate level. In this article I will share the tools I use in my day to day to keep myself informed about the frequent updates in .Net.
As a developer, I believe you have a passion for continuous learning but what are you doing to ensure your expertise keeps up with market changes? How do you position yourself in this world of constant change and keep yourself updated, guaranteeing the quality of your work and the balance with your personal life? What do you think matters the most for a smart .Net developer?
Knowing that time today is precious and scarce, here are some tips on how to keep yourself updated in a simple way:
• https://dotnetketchup.com/ is an aggregator of content related to .Net news, including articles, blogs, YouTube videos and tweets from all around the world. In this aggregator you will also be able to choose the filters that best fit what you are looking for and thus ensure that you are always informed about what is being discussed or shared among the .Net community in any corner of the planet.
• https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/platform/community is Microsoft’s official platform for the .Net community where developers have the opportunity to connect and learn from each other. The intention of this platform is to share experiences and participate in informal discussions with other professionals as well as weekly live events, Q&A sessions, demos, podcasts and much more! Events and meet-ups are also organized in order to encourage fun ways of meeting and connecting with other like-minded developers.
An increasingly globalized and competitive market requires your knowledge to be updated and adaptable, which makes lifelong learning an attitude strongly encouraged by companies.
With these two simple microlearning platforms, you can always stay up to date in the .Net world in a proactive way wherever you are.
Hope these tips have been helpful!
Keep coding!
