Compliments

I imagine that most people like to have nice things said about them. Especially the Words of Affirmation people. I never remember exactly what my love language is because I never finished reading that book. There wasn’t enough plot for me. However, I have always enjoyed complimenting people.

The Esri Developer Summit is just a month away, scheduled for March 6 – 9, 2018 in Palm Springs.

Many teams at Esri have been working to put together a comprehensive line-up of offerings to help you get started with the ArcGIS Pro SDK, and of course, caught up with the latest features and patterns at 2.1.  Here are the different offerings / formats available:

Pre-summit Hands-On Training

Getting Started Hands-On Workshop (New)

One-hour Technical Sessions

30-minute Demo Theater Sessions

ArcGIS Pro Area in the Esri Showcase

Below is a list of all the Pro SDK offerings with descriptions.  For more information, you can search the online agenda here using keywords “Pro SDK”.  We look forward to seeing you at Dev Summit!

Pre-summit Hands-On Training

Once again, there will be a pre-summit hands-on SDK training course offered.  The course is titled “Introduction to Programming with the ArcGIS Pro SDK for .NET” and will be offered March 4th – 5th, 8:30 am – 5:30 pm at the Hilton Palm Springs Hotel.   If you’re looking for a comprehensive, in-depth introduction to the Pro SDK, this is it.  Plan to bring your own machine pre-loaded with ArcGIS Pro and Visual Studio, as well as your Visual Studio .NET skills and get ready to learn:

Introduction to Programming with the ArcGIS Pro SDK for .NET 

This two-day hands-on training course will introduce you to the fundamentals of using the ArcGIS Pro SDK for .NET to customize and extend ArcGIS Pro. Participants will work with Microsoft Visual Studio, the .NET Framework and the Pro SDK to create Pro add-ins to automate existing processes and to add new capabilities that you design and write. The ArcGIS Pro API exposes core aspects of Pro, including: 2D and 3D maps, sharing, integration with ArcGIS Online, Geodatabase, Geometry, Editing, Layouts, and more. The Pro API is also asynchronous and supports multi-threaded programming, and the Pro SDK patterns will be introduced in the workshop.

You can find out more on the Pre-Summit Training page.

Getting Started Hands-On Workshop

New at Dev Summit this year, there will be a hands-on training workshop offered during Dev Summit week.  The new 5-hour workshop is called “Getting Started with the ArcGIS Pro SDK. for .NET” and will be offered on Thursday, March 8th, 9:00 am – 3:30 pm in the Mojave Learning Center.  This is a great way to learn basic and intermediate-level skills with the Pro SDK.  Here’s the description.

Getting Started with the ArcGIS Pro SDK. for .NET

This new hands-on training workshop will introduce you to ArcGIS Pro SDK concepts, helpful tips and practical steps to help you get started developing add-ins to extend ArcGIS Pro.
