How Does Hot Reload Even Work?

Explore the inner workings of Hot Reload and Edit and Continue technologies in this conference talk from NDC Sydney 2022. Dive deep into the mechanics behind applying code changes on the fly without stopping or recompiling applications. Gain insights into the structure of .NET DLLs, Roslyn's compilation of deltas, and how the runtime applies these changes. Discover why certain features don't work, potential future improvements, and enhance your understanding of what ILSpy displays. While not focusing on JavaScript or microservices, this talk provides valuable knowledge about .NET internals for developers interested in the technical aspects of hot reloading.
