C# file-based apps are getting a serious upgrade in .NET 11. In this session, we'll tour the latest improvements, including faster launch performance, app-to-app references, richer package reference support, and expanded CLI support across more `dotnet` commands. We'll see how file-based apps are growing from a lightweight way to run a single C# file into a surprisingly capable model for building real tools and applications—without giving up the simplicity that made them compelling in the first place. If you've been curious how far C# can go without a project file, .NET 11 turns it up to 11!
