ConferencePulse Demos Composable .NET AI Stack

Luis Quintanilla’s post walks through ConferencePulse, a Blazor Server conference assistant that runs live polls, answers audience questions, generates insights, and summarizes sessions in real time. The sample shows how Microsoft’s .NET AI stack pieces fit together, including Microsoft.Extensions.AI, DataIngestion, VectorData, MCP, and Microsoft Agent Framework.

// ANALYSIS

This is more useful as a reference architecture than as a flashy app launch. The real value is showing when to stay with simple chat/tooling and when to escalate to agents.

–`IChatClient` handles the straightforward cases, so most features don’t need heavyweight orchestration
–`DataIngestion` and `VectorData` provide the grounding layer for polls and Q&A, with content pulled from GitHub and docs
–MCP is doing double duty here: the app consumes external context and also exposes session data as tools
–Agent Framework is reserved for the one workflow that actually benefits from fan-out/fan-in summarization
–Good template for event software, but this reads as a tutorial/sample project, not a standalone product release
