JetBrains .NET Day Online 2026: Watch the Recordings
Summary
JetBrains .NET Day Online 2026 took place on October 7, and all session recordings are now available on YouTube. The keynote by Anastasia Kazakova, Matt Ellis, Matthias Koch, and Mehul Harry introduced JetBrains Air, demonstrating how Rider shares debugging and refactoring skills with agents, and showed that the dottrace-analyze skill raised agent accuracy from 4.7 to 8.1 out of 10. Other sessions covered the Outbox, Inbox, and Saga patterns for distributed systems, C# interceptors enabling Native AOT compatibility, and a refinement-first process for AI development that starts with user stories. Additional talks explored supply chain attack risks through NuGet and MSBuild, modular monoliths as a middle ground between monoliths and microservices, and .NET interoperability across platforms using the C# MCP SDK. The event also featured Microsoft’s open-source SQL MCP Server for database access by language models and a Blazor Data Orchestrator built with .NET Aspire and Azure Container Apps.
