Join Carl Franklin and Richard Campbell as they take you on a tour of the broad range of subjects they've explored recording more than 1200 episodes of .NET Rocks over the past 10+ years. The development world today is evolving rapidly, but a look at the history of development can help inform the path we're on and where we're going. Along the way you'll hear some great stories from the various .NET Rocks episodes and get some ideas of how you can take your career and your company into the future of technology.

After Carl and Richard's talk they will be interviewing Chris Canal on the topic of React.js for an upcoming .NET Rocks! show.
