This section of the respository is dedicated to my presentation on Windows Server Containers for the Windows Developer. I started exploring about Containers for Windows in the fall of 2015 shortly after Microsoft announced containers for Windows Server 2016 and have continued to follow it as time allowed. What I found as I dug into this that while there’s alot of documentation out there, but I don’t feel it speaks to a key audience. Namely Windows developers. Most of the materials I found are focused on folks that are either already familiar with containers (from Linux) or are from the operations side of the house. So I wanted to come up with materials from the viewpoint of the Windows developer.
As I set out learning this new technology, there were resources I found useful. To many to share in the presentation itself, so I'm placing them here. If you've seen my presentation, I hope you enjoyed it. And I also hope these links provide you with some additional information to help drive your own journey.
Enjoy!
