Build conference (we made a broadcast on Habré:
day 1 and
day 2 ), our colleagues held another conference in San Francisco, but more focused - about client web technologies and news in the Microsoft Edge browser.
Looking back: One year of Microsoft EdgeIn the framework of the
Microsoft Edge Web Summit 2016 conference, engineers from the Edge team shared their experience in developing a new browser, talking about new supported standards and future plans.

Using internet-scale data to guide product planning
Greg Whitworth explains how to use data when deciding where to invest development time, what new features to implement, what bugs to close first, and what improvements will give the greatest return.
How We Engage Your Ecosystem
Colleen Williams and Anton Molleda continue the topic of working with bugs (in the browser, websites, frameworks and third-party applications) and tell how their team interacts with developers and how you (yes!) Can help the team work it is better.
