Microsoft’s annual Build developer conference was one of countless events scheduled to take place this spring and summer that had to be canceled due to the novel coronavirus pandemic, but unlike some other events, Build wasn’t scrapped altogether. In mid-March, Microsoft announced that it would no longer be going forward with an in-person event, but would instead host a digital event that developers would be invited to attend.
Typically, Microsoft charges developers thousands of dollars to attend the event in Seattle, but this year, anyone can sign up online and watch everything for free. Microsoft Build 2020 starts on May 19th at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET and lasts until May 21st at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET. Throughout those 48 hours, virtual attendees will be able to stream hundreds of sessions on a wide variety of topics, and you see the entire schedule on the Build website.
