In this session, we will learn how to best use async/await in C# by analyzing how .NET compiles our async code.

Join me as we take an existing app and optimize its async code together, showing off performance gains, better exception handling, improved run-time speed, smaller app size and more using the latest tools in C#12 + .NET 8!
