What's the point?

The goal is to gather people working with Microsoft technologies in the same place, so we can all learn from each other. (Also, I really miss the good old days of IRC.)

FAQ

Why do you need my e-mail?

Slack is invite based, therefore I need your e-mail to add you to the community. The invite sending tool above won't save your address.

Are there other active Microsoft slacks?

Yes, and we try to defer specific topics over to them. UWP talk at windev.slack.com and .net core talk at aspnetcore.slack.com.
