I've recently made a change in employment and I'm now Lead Product Evangelist at @Kentico 🎉🥳 Are you a member of the #Kentico community? I'm here to support you 💪 For details about my journey to this role and what I'll be doing next, read on 🧐... linkedin.com/posts/sean-g-w…

#fsharp + @htmx_org + @falco_framework = ❤️

Second post in the NServiceBus series is up! This time we’re diving into the code to send and receive messages in .NET 8! 🎉 #dotnet #nservicebus #nimblepros blog.nimblepros.com/blogs/getting-…

Over the next few weeks I'll be putting out some blog and video content on NServiceBus, zero-to-hero style, based on my experiences with the framework and the tooling around it. Very excited to kick this series off!

oh, you sweet summer child 😅😅😅 #opensource

@angel_d_munoz Whoa-lo-lo

Looks like I have my interview for the internal Kotlin position on friday. Time to install Age of Empires, play pokemon emerald and other anxiety coping solutions, maybe another library from today to Friday 😆 Oh geez, I wish I could simply y'know prepare for it like anyone else

@KyleMcMaster Reminds me of the philosophy of "GOOD" 👍 joshuanhook.com/2019/03/31/joc…

Public speaking always makes me nervous 😅 but here I am submitting proposals for sessions anyways! 🙃💪 Thought this article might encourage others who are on the fence to do the same! ardalis.com/choose-excitem…

@mkristensen I've mostly left VS for VS Code (for the past 9 months). It has 100x better front-end tooling and a workspace view. Having a workspace view would make VS feel less painful to use, esp when focusing on .NET things in a project.

Would having a workspace browser in Solution Explorer in Visual Studio be useful?

@sigfualt @sinclairinat0r @KyleMcMaster We tried this here github.com/NitroDevs/FSho… and didn't have a great experience. So this definitely hits home for me.

@sinclairinat0r Of course! It comes with the territory when leaning something new in my view. I did not get it working. Working with @KyleMcMaster he got his project set up with efcore. It was cool to see that even if it’s not recommended.

F# a community rights of passage seems to be trying to connect your app to efcore. Directly from F# I think you should try. It’s a canon even.

hot take - back-ends for front-ends (BFFs) are distributed systems with poor boundaries 🔥

@codeopinion Net positive better off? Yes! 100 steps forward in tooling, resources, documentation, composability of APIs. 50 steps back in overcomplexity, missing "the fundamentals", cargo cults. Plenty of room for improvement, but things are so much better today, I do not want to go back.

I'd love to know the web developers writing server-side apps pre-2008 compared to the apps you're writing with current tooling today if you think we're in a net positive better off space today than then.

🚨 2024 is already off to a big start! We're bringing support for .ng files to @AnalogJS! 🚀 🔥 Works with @Angular components 🔥 Works with directives 🔥 Works with existing concepts 👀 Demo app analog-ng.netlify.app Join the discussion! github.com/analogjs/analo…

@KarenPayneMVP If C# were a white space sensitive language, #2 but... it's not, so #1.

Question of the day Which is your preference?

Changing perception takes time, but we have time 😎 #dotnet

@codeopinion @kibertoad Would it be fair to say that application frameworks, libraries, architecture, patterns don't determine the business boundaries - the business boundaries determine the architecture, ect... Sending a "message" from "checkout" to "orders" is no guarantee of "loose coupling".

That's not the issue. The issue is you're going to couple (data, schema, temporal, control, etc), and you need to *explicitly* decide *how* and to *which* logical boundaries. Having a tool/framework/whatever that abstracts that so you don't have to think of it is precisely the problem.

I swear someone I know has been saying this. youtube.com/watch?v=BFcxgc…

Interested in learning more about accessibility tools and technology for captioning? @edmistond provides a great list of the options available. This is helpful for those consuming the captions and the people speaking. Could be very enlightening for conference organizers 🤯!

I learned 🧠 a lot about the technical strategy and implementation choices behind activity tracking in Dmitry's post. Check it out 👍!

@andythompy's analysis is spot on. It's always about tradeoffs, which comes with no surprise... but, which tradeoffs? Do you know the challenges and benefits you are adopting when you select a DXP solution? Understand your goals, then identify a product that aligns with them!

4 years ago today was day 1 of @Kentico Connection 2019 - the last in person Connection event. Since then the virtual events have been great, but I cannot wait to see everyone in person next month for @Kentico Connection 2023!

@brandontroberts @rainerhahnekamp Prehistoric Hungarian notation.

@rainerhahnekamp Nothing wrong. Just the private field symbol and the dollar sign

Now we've gone too far 🧐 #rxjs #angular

@CFDevelop It's definitely overused. I'll take overused DI to underused DI. I think the easy wins in pushing back the "DI everything" train can be found in new'ing up non-volatile dependencies. Teams can try just a few to start and learn the boundaries in their app over time.

Dependency injection gets abused too much in #dotnet. It's there to allow you to inject some concrete instances into classes that might have a few different interface implementations Instead, it's used to configure everything from validation, mapping, to options
