Chet Husk is a Product Manager on the .NET Tools team at Microsoft, where he leads the .NET SDK, MSBuild, Template Engine, and Install Scripts teams -- shaping how millions of .NET developers build, publish, and containerize their applications. Before joining Microsoft in 2021, Chet was deeply embedded in the F# open-source community, serving on the F# Software Foundation Board and co-maintaining Ionide, the popular F# extension for VS Code. At Microsoft, he drove the built-in container publishing support that lets developers create container images with just "dotnet publish" -- no Dockerfile required -- and recently shipped SLNX, the new XML-based solution file format for the .NET CLI. He is also exploring the intersection of AI and build tooling with an open-source MCP server that lets AI assistants analyze MSBuild binary logs.
