Modernizing apps always sounds great… until you actually have to do it. Matt Soucoup breaks down how GitHub Copilot can analyze your project, generate a plan, and even create task lists to help you move from legacy .NET to modern .NET faster. It moves you from a “someday project” to “let’s actually ship this.” Learn more: https://msft.it/6053Q0gRh #dotnet #githubcopilot #appmodernization #devtools #softwaredevelopment

The hardest part of modernizing a legacy Java app isn't writing code — it's figuring out where to start. In this episode, learn how to use the GitHub Copilot app modernization extension to run an AI-powered assessment on a legacy Java application, turning uncertainty into a clear, actionable modernization plan in minutes instead of weeks. In this episode, you'll learn: → How to get a bird's-eye view of a legacy Java codebase using GitHub Copilot → How the app modernization assessment uses static analysis and rule-based inspection under the hood → How to read the "Mission Control" dashboard — cloud readiness issues, Java upgrade issues, CVEs, and coverage → How to create custom modernization tasks for edge cases the tool doesn't cover out of the box → How to go from "this looks scary" to a categorized view of risk, effort, and a clear path forward 📺 This is Episode 1 of the Modernize Java Apps with AI series — a 9-part, hands-on guide to upgrading legacy Java applications using GitHub Copilot. 🔗 Series playlist:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlrxD0HtieHhaBJWlcxGd-kTDikSD4xyD 🔗 GitHub Copilot Modernization extension: https://aka.ms/GHCPMod-Java 👤 Presented by Ayan Gupta, Java & AI Advocate, Microsoft Java #GitHubCopilot #JavaModernization #LegacyCode #CloudMigration #Azure #ApplicationAssessment #TechDebt #AI #EnterpriseJava

Modernizing apps isn’t just rewriting code—it’s untangling dependencies, tracing data flows, and making changes without breaking production. In this session, we’ll show how you can use agentic AI to take on the hardest parts of modernization: analyzing large codebases, mapping dependencies, planning upgrades, refactoring safely, while doing it all at scale. With GitHub Copilot modernization capabilities, you can move from legacy complexity to modernized apps in days, not months. Seating for this session is first-come, first-served. Add it to your schedule to plan your day and arrive early to secure a spot.
