I'm thrilled to announce, that this year I'm starting a newsletter about .NET 🥳 The first issue about C# 12 features is coming tomorrow on Friday Feel free to subscribe if you want to get weekly news about .NET See you tomorrow in your inbox☺️ okyrylchuk.dev

Released version 0.2.0 of Blazor.SVGAnimation to NuGet today. The package now supports Blazor Server as well. Apart from this, I also changed to use the event listener model from Blazor.DOM and deprecated some unnecessary methods. #blazor #dotnet Project: github.com/KristofferStru…

If you ever need to implement audit logging - EF has a shortcut. Audit logging is the process of documenting activity within the software systems. Audit logs record the events, who the current user was, and the impacted entity. The logs can be as detailed as you need them to be. A simple example is tracking when an entity changes. This information can be in the same database table. For more detailed audit logs, you may want a dedicated database table. EF Core's change tracker can help you implement audit logging. You can determine which entities changed and the before and after values. After that, it's straightforward to write that to the database. I used EF interceptors to implement this in the past. Here's an in-depth explanation of how to use them: milanjovanovic.tech/blog/how-to-us…

Dependency Inversion + DDD = Domain-centric architecture A few famous examples are: - Hexagonal (ports and adapters) - Onion architecture - Clean architecture Clean architecture places the business logic and domain model at the application center. Use cases are also part of the core of the application. They orchestrate the domain model and tell it what to do. It's interesting how the dependencies between layers work. The inner layers define abstractions (interfaces). The outer layers implement these interfaces. At run time, the concrete implementations replace the interfaces. This allows you to hide the internals of things like SMS messaging, email, caching, etc. Another benefit is improved testability. The application core doesn't depend on infrastructure. So, it's easy to write automated unit tests for this layer. However, I find myself moving towards a more feature-driven approach. Similar to what Vertical Slice Architecture proposes. I will also break the dependency rule and introduce EF/Dapper in the Application layer. But the thing is, I know how to maintain this kind of system. I know when to introduce an abstraction or refactor the use case. You can only learn this from experience and building many systems. So don't obsess over architecture too much. Having the freedom to make the right architectural choice is what matters. P.S. If you liked this, consider joining The .NET Weekly. I write about software engineering & architecture every Saturday.

@cecilphillip This sounds like a great idea, I humbly submit my homebrew Aspire Environment Generator - its early days but I'm already finding it useful. github.com/bUKaneer/white…

I'm thinking it might be helpful to have a dotnet/aspire-components-contrib repo on GitHub where the community can view and collaborate on implementations. Similar but not exactly like how Dapr manages theirs. Thoughts? github.com/dapr/component… #dotnetaspire #daprdev

What is the cleanest way to get configuration values in .NET? I use the Options pattern, and here's why you should know about it. App configuration lives in environment variables or JSON files. You can get individual values using the `IConfiguration` interface. But this is error-prone and cumbersome, so I don't recommend it. Instead, I use the Options pattern: - Create a class to represent the settings - Bind the class properties to application settings (JSON) - Consume the Options pattern in my code using IOptions You can also add data annotations to your settings class for simple validation. Or even implement complex validation rules with something like FluentValidation. If you enjoyed this, you will love The .NET weekly newsletter. More than 33,000+ engineers already read it. Subscribe here: milanjovanovic.tech Are you using the Options pattern?

Looking forward to TennoCon 2022 #Warframe

CompSci led me to believe I’d be writing a lot more Animal inheritance code in my programming career

@martin_evans @Ccommerce_pro Congrats, you're perfect for that role - still miss you dude :)

Starting a new role within @Ccommerce_pro today that moves me out of directly producing code for the 1st time in 21 years.... eek!

@SquareEnix @tombraider Great stuff! #SquareEnixPresents

GET 2 FREE @TombRaider PC GAMES NOW 👉Follow us @SquareEnix 👉Reply to this Tweet with #SquareEnixPresents Do the above, like magic, we'll send you a code for both games to your DM. That's it, go go go!

TechLead job specs often mention mentoring junior team members. Does anyone work where this function has been elevated into a role of it's own? Furthermore, has anyone any resources on mentoring juniors that they could link me to? RT for reach pls. Thx :-)

Howdy, as part of my UX uni module I need together data on the last hotel you booked via a website or app, I've put together a quick survey which should take you five minutes to complete. forms.gle/mZE1T89ynkwSpe…

Announcing the preview of Cloud Services (extended support)—a new #Azure Resource Manager (ARM) based deployment model for Azure Cloud Services: msft.it/6018ptyer

@madSimonJ I use a combination of Microsoft Family and Google Family tools, linking the kids accounts and setting their ages appropriately. Also ensure safe search is enabled in Chrome and use Microsoft Launcher on their Android devices. Its not perfect but it works.

Folks with kids - what are you using to block them from websites you don't want them to visit?

@rickyftw @EliotETC You guys pop up in the strangest of places, Internet Today breaks into the mainstream? Nice! youtu.be/h1dYEmcdD9A?t=…

@MartinKearn If you want more "fun" grab a Raspberry Pi 4, install Twister OS and have the look and feel of MacOS or Windows 10 with the power of Linux twisteros.com

I'm 41 and have only ever used a #Windows PC. I love Windows and it works well for my work most of the time (my work is coding against azure services, a lot of .net), but I feel it may be time to try a Mac ... convince me! (I use iPhone, Apple Watch and iPad)

This is incredible engineering. Next step: Boston Dynamics's robotic control + Tesla Autopilot's machine learning + OpenAI's & DeepMind's self-play learning = AGI dance party

@martin_evans Looks like an effort to purr-program to me...two minds are better than one!

Woke up early so decided to do some studying. "StudyCat" made themselves immediately available to supervise.

@shanksy1387 Yeah its not like they own Amazon Prime Music/Unlimited and could offer safe harbour for songs on that service for instance.

Man DMCA strikes can do one! Rocking out to a little Limp Bizkit and feel like this could of been the background music for today! Imagine if Twitch was owned by like a really big company that could go to record labels and sort this shit out. You know like Amazon or something!
