Added Hot Reload to your C# .NET workflow yet? It could be a game changer! dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/01/12/hot…

Hey friends, coming up on the 20th Anniversary of .NET! If you've been doing C#, F#, .NET for just 1 or 2 years, I'd love to hear from you! Reply with a little 10-30 second video about how you found .NET and why you enjoy it and we may use it in our celebration! #dotnetlovesme

Remember when XML vs JSON was a thing? I've had a similar feeling of tribalism with people using Protobuf, like it's some sort of voodoo incantation. But it's actually hella dead easy to use. Check out our practical how-to guide right here for C# .NET! dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/01/13/pro…

The final part of our Protobuf in C# .NET is up today. And we're finally talking Benchmarks between Protobuf and JSON! dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/01/18/pro…

Sick of handling your generic "DbUpdateException" for every Entity Framework exception? There's now a better way! dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/01/29/bet…

I've been using Open API Generator for a while now when working in a team that prefers to completely design an API via YAML upfront. Makes turning that into C# a one line command! dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/02/06/usi…

I’ve been watching from afar .NET developers argue about a particular upcoming C# 11 feature, Parameter Null Checks. It’s actually just a bit of syntactic sugar to make it easier to throw argument null exceptions, but it’s caused a bit of a stir dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/02/18/c11…

I've been using the same method of auto updating "DateCreated, DateUpdate and DeleteDeleted" fields in the database for quite some time. And all it takes is a little bit of Entity Framework wizardry and you are up and running! dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/03/16/aut…

A dead simple way to globally apply a query filter to ignore soft deleted entities in EF Core. A nice "configure once and forget about it". dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/03/17/usi…

An under the radar feature of SQL Server. The ability to generate threadsafe unique auto incrementing values with SQL Server Sequences. dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/03/22/usi…

I used to really dislike "User Secrets" in .NET. I felt in encouraged developers to email passwords and secrets to each other. But.. I've grown to like them for machine specific configurations. dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/04/28/usi…

I've had a couple of projects where we have seriously had to weigh up using .NET Framework just so we could use existing WCF services, but that is no more! devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/corewcf…

You asked for the structure back! Now you can have it 😅 #dotnet #csharp

Here’s another one from the vault of “Huh, I guess I never thought I needed that until now” dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/05/12/raw…

I thought I understood everything about override/virtual vs new in C#.. But I guess not. dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/05/13/ove…

The new IEnumerable visualizer in Visual Studio 2022 is pretty dang handy! dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/05/17/ien…

I've found Playwright to be a nice little middleground between Cypress and Selenium. It's *very* easy to get E2E tests running in very few lines of code, works with NodeJS, Python, Java and .NET, and even works with your existing testing framework! dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/05/20/usi…

I couldn't stop going down the Playwright E2E testing rabbit hole! If you've ever had to write custom selenium code to "screenshot" your test as you go, then Playwright is gonna seem like an absolute gift at this point! dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/05/24/usi…

I have a very specific way of using Specflow to enable non-technical testers to start writing E2E automated tests from Day 1. It's not strictly in the manual, but I find it always gets the automated testing journey off to a bang. dotnetcoretutorials.com/2022/06/01/how…
