Have you ever used SignalR in your development? .NET might have used it for the code you wrote, but you didn't realize it. Kevin Griffin has used SignalR for multiple projects over the years and joins us to discuss how you can use it in your development. SignalR uses a pub/sub model and is great for applications that need immediate feedback. Kevin used it for a city's emergency system to provide alerts to first responders within seconds of an emergency being recorded. Like most technologies, SignalR can be problematic if used incorrectly. We get to hear a couple of stories where Kevin had to work to fix troublesome SignalR implementations. Have you developed applications that could benefit from using SignalR? Let us know on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

In this episode we dig into a few technologies that can be used together to great effect. We have discussed Backend for Frontend (BFF) before but in this episode the focus is a bit different. As it turns out, an awesome acronym like BFF gets reused. Setting up a BFF works well with the new minimal APIs that were included in .NET 6. Then we tie everything together with Darker, which is similar to MediatR, but with minimal configuration and features built for BFFs. We had a lot of fun discussing this tech stack with Jonny Olliff-Lee and hope you have just as much fun listening to it. In the episode we ask our listeners to help us with the best way to say BFF. Listen to the episode and let us know on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

Diyaz Yakubov comes on the show this week to talk about a few tools he's using to make his life easier at work. We talk about NDepend - a code analyser that you can use on your IDE or CI/CD pipeline to give you recommendations on your code structure and then we move onto C4Model - a new graphical notation language and SharpLab - a neat little online code playground that can convert your code to IL or ASM.

.NET has been cross-platform for a number of years now starting with the release of .NET Core. Most of the developers that we know work on Windows computers so we don't have first or second hand knowledge of using .NET on other operating systems. Today that is going to change. Maarten Merken has been doing .NET development on a Mac for more than two years and he joins us on the podcast to discuss his experience. We talk about different versions of .NET, debugging, virtualization, IDE's and more. When it comes to IDE's Maarten feels like JetBrains Rider is the best cross-platform IDE out there. Are you doing cross-platform development with .NET? If not, have you thought about trying it? Let us know on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

"I thought WPF was dead" is usually one of the first things that Kevin Bost hears when discussing today's topic. WPF is not dead. In fact, WPF is supported by .NET 6 and a plethora of third-party apps, extensions and packages. Kevin has been working with WPF for a long time and has become an expert on the framework. In today's episode we discuss some of the strengths and weaknesses of WPF, competing frameworks, open-source projects and the path forward. If you need to develop desktop apps for Windows, WPF is still the most mature framework out there. Have you worked with WPF? Are you currently developing applications with WPF?

If the title of this episode didn't give it away... we are talking about logging into and accessing the content in web applications. Albert Starreveld spends a lot of his time implementing authentication and authorization workflows for his clients. There are a lot of factors that determine how to handle these implementations correctly. Are you still using role-based authorization? What identity provider are you using? Are you using SSO? Are you using claims/scopes? Do you know how to set up claims transformations? These are just some of the questions to ask when dealing with authentication and authorization. In this episode, we discuss these questions and more with Albert. Have you had to implement auth in a web application? How did it go? Let us know on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

In this episode, Caleb and Shawn discuss Playwright, an end-to-end testing framework for web apps. There are several established end-to-end testing frameworks including Selenium and Cypress but Playwright was new to us. Shawn found it while doing research for an app that he is currently working on so we decided to talk about what he has learned using Playwright so far. The framework supports multiple languages including TypeScript, JavaScript, Python and .NET. There is a lot of intelligence under the hood including auto-wait and web-first assertions. Listen in and see if Playwright could be the end-to-end testing framework that you use on your next project. Have you used Playwright before?

Dennis Doomen returns to the podcast to talk with us about open source projects. We discuss some of the latest milestones for Fluent Assertions and some of the positives and negatives of managing a popular open source project. While companies and developers benefit from open source projects they don't always view the open source community the same way. Dennis shares his thoughts on the subject and Shawn and Caleb talk about how their companies use open source. We also talk about different ways to sponsor an open source project and some of the communities that can grow up around an open source project. What do you think about open source?

All frameworks have their quirks. As a framework matures some of the quirks go away but every framework seems to have one or two things that you have to work around. When writing demo or proof of concept code you may not run into these quirks. They only surface when you need to deploy your code in another environment. In this episode the panelists discuss a Blazor quirk when working with different environments. Blazor does not handle appsettings.json or ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT like other parts of .NET. Listen to this episode to find out more. What is the weirdest quirk you have had to deal with writing code? Let us know on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

Today we talk with Anthony Trad - he lays his case for why layering the repository pattern over Entity Framework is sometimes not a best idea for your codebase. Depending on the context, you could well just be over engineering. After that, we tackle a couple of other patterns such as the specification pattern and the mediator pattern and talk about when it is and is not appropriate to use them.

Believe it or not, software development is not an easy job. Each business domain is different, you are constantly learning something new and it takes work to stay on top of the right patterns and practices. How do you learn the right patterns and practices though? Maybe you read a lot of books, watch a lot of videos, or you go to meetups and conferences. The thing is those resources only take you so far and you will find that there are things you still don't know. Hamed Shirbandi created TaskoMask to help him understand .NET patterns and practices and to show examples of real world challenges. In this episode we discuss how he architected the open-source project and some of the different technologies that he used. What have you had to learn by doing?

Dominic Ullmann comes on the show to tell us how async / await works and the benefits of using it rather than making database calls synchronously. He talks about his recent experience converting a 500k+ line of code legacy application to use the async / await pattern.

In this episode the panelists talk about source control. What is source control? How do you use it? Do you need it? As a developer today the majority of us are probably using Git in some form or fashion. Even though it feels like Git has been around forever that wasn't always the case. Shawn, Wai and Caleb remember the days before Git using SourceSafe or Subversion. Things have come a long way since the days of SourceSafe but that doesn't mean that Git is necessarily easy or intuitive. The panelists take a closer look at some of the Git commands like merge, stash, squash and rebase. Do you use source control? If so has it helped make your life easier?

Mads has been the lead designer for more than five years now and has worked on the language for over fifteen years. Our discussion covers multiple topics including the growth of C#, being backward compatible and how different languages incorporate ideas from each other. We also dig into the specifics of things like async/await, default interfaces and dynamics. On top of all that we get a peek at the future of C# and what we might see in the next couple of versions. What would you ask Mads about C# if you had the chance? Let us know on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

Most developers we know find project management to be a necessary evil but without it a lot of us would be stumbling around in the dark. Shawn and Caleb look back over their careers to discuss different project management methodologies. Whether it is waterfall, agile, scrum, or none of these, projects are hard to manage. Both Shawn and Caleb have seen a lot of different ways that projects can be managed or mismanaged and they have differing opinions on what works best. Join us for this episode to find out which they prefer and what allows them to focus on getting to work coding. What is your preferred project management style?

Wai and Caleb sit down to discuss how authentication is evolving and how it works in Blazor. Identity server is now Duende server and with that comes the Backend for Frontend (BFF) pattern. From an authentication persepective this pattern can benefit SPA's because of the way it handles cookies and tokens. Caleb is in the process of integrating a .NET 6 Blazor app with Identity server 4 (IDS4) and wanted to use BFF but it isn't an option. We discuss alternatives and how those alternatives might be viewed from the business and developer perspectives. Join us and find out where Caleb ended up on his authentication journey.

Have you ever used SignalR in your development? .NET might have used it for the code you wrote and you didn't realize it. Kevin Griffin has used SignalR for multiple projects over the years and joins us to discuss how you can use it in your development. SignalR uses a pub/sub model and is great for applications that need immediate feedback. Kevin used it for a city's emergency system to provide alerts to first responders within seconds of an emergency being recorded. Like most technologies SignalR can be problematic if used incorrectly. We get to hear a couple of stories where Kevin had to work to fix troublesome SignalR implementations. Have you developed applications that could benefit from using SignalR?

In today's episode Mohamad Lawand helps us try and grok gRPC. gRPC is a modern open source high performance Remote Procedure Call (RPC) framework that can run in any environment. That description doesn't really demystify what gRPC can do so Mohamad helps us fill in some of the gaps. We find out how gRPC works in .NET, how it works with HTTP, how it is different from REST and some good use cases for using it in your applications. gRPC is used by companies like Netflix and Square and is supported by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation.

Have you ever thought about mixing two SPA frameworks together? In today's episode we discuss doing just that, Blazor and Angular running in the same application. Both Angular and Blazor have ways to export code as web components that can be reused in other applications. In order to use Angular in Blazor you have to get familiar with IJSRuntime and how JavaScript interoperability works in Blazor. We look at how Blazor can provide input and get output from Angular as well as discuss how you can handle CSS between the two. We also go over some of the use cases for using Angular web components inside a Blazor application. Have you worked with Angular Elements or Blazor web components?

The first thing you need to know when thinking outside the box is that there is no such thing as impossible. Maybe it isn't financially feasible or would take an inordinate amount of time but it is not impossible. Next throw out any preconceived notions of what is required, untouchable or unquestionable. With those two in place you can do things like embed images in source code, use caps lock as a modifier or create complex live animations for a Twitch stream.

He has read hundreds of books that have taught him the secrets to getting more done by getting into this state.
He starts by telling us how he was passed over for a promotion at Qualcomm in favor of someone younger and less experienced and how that inspired him to figure out what the other guy was doing differently. He learned that he needed to get more done with the time he was spending on his projects.
The trick? Deep Work!
Deep Work is the ability to spend uninterrupted, focused time on a task to bend your entire mind toward the goal.
Other developers call it "Flow" or "the Zone."

Today's episode is all about functional programming. While C# isn't necessarily designed for functional programming you can still write functional code as long as you aren't a purist. Simon Painter joins us to talk about functional programming in general and how to use it in C# specifically. How do you write functional code in an object-oriented language? How do you use classes? What limitations do you put on your methods? We discuss these questions and also look at the new record type, Funcs, switch statements and Linq. Of course F# comes up during our discussion and we go through some of the differences and how C# has adopted a number of things from the F# language. Do you use functional programming in C#? Do you use the F# language? Let us know on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

Today we take a look at how Microsoft is working with blockchain in Azure. Stefano Tempesta is a senior program manager at Microsoft on Azure confidential computing. Azure confidential computing focuses on securing data in use and one of the technologies they are working with is blockchain. Microsoft is working to develop blockchain solutions that can be used for things like digital signatures and supply chain management.
We also find out how Microsoft is using blockchain on some internal projects. Since Blockchain technology is here to stay, Stefano discusses a number of future uses outside cryptocurrency. Even so we had to ask Stefano about bitcoin, etherium and NFTs. Have you used Blockchain? Do you see any use for it in the enterprise space? Let us know on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

Do you write unit tests? Do you use Test Driven Development (TDD)? Dennis Doomen does. He started an open source project called Fluent Assertions thirteen years ago that now has over 100 million downloads and has been forked over 400 times. We talk to Dennis about how Fluent Assertions got started and how it has evolved over the years.
Dennis is a big proponent of TDD so we talk through some of the positives and negatives of using the methodology. Unit tests are something that most developers want to incorporate into their workflow but can't for one reason or another. Join us for this episode and maybe Dennis will be able to help you get over that hump. Are unit tests part of your workflow? Let us know on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

A long time ago in a world very different from this one we had Mads Kristensen on the podcast. During our talk the topic of 64-bit Visual Studio came up and we thought it was probably years away. Well here we are with Visual Studio 2022 64-bit on the way. Mads comes back on the podcast to talk about the path to 64-bit and some of the interesting things they had to work through along the way. We couldn't have Mads back on the podcast and not talk about extensions so we find out how extensions will work differently in Visual Studio 2022. What is your favorite extension for Visual Studio? Let us know on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

In this episode of Adventures in .NET we have a special guest join us to talk about pair programming. When you hear the term pair programming it may conjure up ideas like efficiency, learning, discomfort or maybe even that it is a waste of time. A lot depends on the (two or more) developers who are pair programming together. We look into different reasons why you might want to try pair programming and discuss some ways to get the most out of the practice. There are certainly pros and cons to pair programming but with the right approach it can be useful for you and your team. Have you done any pair programming? What did you think about it? Let us know on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

Most developers we know are constantly learning new things and growing their skills. Jort Rodenburg has been a book reviewer for Manning for several years and was approached to write a book on C# which he thought would be a great opportunity to grow. His book, Code like a Pro in C#, was a great learning experience for him and is intended to help bridge the gap between beginner and advanced developers.
We discussed the process of writing the book, some of the resources he used and his favorite chapter. What is the best way you have found to grow as a developer? Let us know on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

Ron Dagdag, lead software engineer at Spacee, joins us to get interactive with Jupyter Notebook. It is an open-source web application that allows you to create and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualizations and narrative text. Microsoft has embraced Jupyter Notebook with the open source .NET Interactive project. The more we discussed Jupyter Notebook the more ways we came up with to use it. For instance Ron uses it for a lot of his demos and you can share it with someone without them having to install anything because it runs in the browser. Do you have any ideas on how to use Jupyter Notebook? If so share it with us on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

Today we dig into security with Christos Matskas, program manager for Microsoft Identity. How secure is your codebase? How do you store your secrets? Often security takes a back seat to more pressing concerns during development but that doesn't have to be the case.
We discuss several ways that Microsoft, .NET and Azure make it easier to secure your code. Even if you aren't using that stack, Christos provides examples of ways to make sure you don't leak sensitive information in your applications. Not every developer has to be a security expert but every developer should do what they can to make sure the application they are working on isn't a target for hackers. Let us know how you secure your application on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

How often do you stop to think about how easy it is for new developers to get started with .NET? Since .NET Core was released the framework is available to many more developers but in some parts of the world there are still hurdles to overcome. Samuel Adranyi moved back to Ghana two years ago to try and help Africans get over some of those hurdles. In West Africa a lot of people start out with HTML, CSS and JavaScript and naturally gravitate to JavaScript frameworks. Samuel has started a few meetups and user groups to introduce people to .NET and his enthusiasm for the framework is contagious. While .NET is more accessible than ever there is still more to do and Samuel is leading the charge in West Africa.

Chuck dives into the 3 essentials for getting the next successful outcome you want in your career. Whether that's something simple like a raise or something more complex like going freelance, you can achieve it by working on 3 main areas.
First, building skills. The most obvious type of skills you'll need is technical skills. However, don't neglect your people skills and your organizational skills as well since you're often paid for how you work with people and enhance their work and how you put your work together in the most efficient ways.
Second, building relationships. Often other people will be able to help you find the opportunities or will be the ones to make the decisions that impact your ability to get the outcome you want. Having good relationships is key to having good outcomes.
Third, building recognition. Being known for being valuable in important ways allows you to leverage the skills you have to build better relationships and create opportunities to get what you need to get the outcomes you want by giving people what they want. A podcast is a great way to do all three. Chuck explains exactly how that works in this podcast and goes deeper as part of the Dev Influencers Accelerator.

All cloud service providers have a learning curve and AWS is no exception. Garo Yeriazarian has been working with AWS for a couple of years now and has a lot of practical advice for working with .NET in AWS. AWS doesn't necessarily make it easy for you to get started but following Garo's advice should help flatten the learning curve. Once you have familiarized yourself with AWS you will find that there is a lot of parity with Azure. Who knows, after listening to Garo you might be tempted to try AWS out for yourself.

Chuck explains what he taught Nathan last week when we asked how to get hired at a FANG (Facebook Apple/Amazon Netflix Google) company. Essentially, it boils down to how to build the skills and knowledge needed to pass the interview. How to build the relationships to get into the door and have the interviewer want you to succeed. And how to build the reputation that has the company wanting you regardless of the outcome.
This approach also works for speaking at conferences, selling courses, and other outcomes as well as it's the core of building a successful career as an influencer.

Chuck was on a strategic call with one of his potential coaching clients talking about cryptocurrencies and realized that this is one of the major reasons that people want to become influencers. Or, rather, that many people aspire to make a difference and/or make money and the best way to do that is to become the person people go to for what you do.
So, how do you become the first person people think of when they think of that thing you know how to do? Let Chuck tell you.

He has read hundreds of books that have taught him the secrets to getting more done by getting into this state.
He starts by telling us how he was passed over for a promotion at Qualcomm in favor of someone younger and less experienced and how that inspired him to figure out what the other guy was doing differently. He learned that he needed to get more done with the time he was spending on his projects.
The trick? Deep Work!
Deep Work is the ability to spend uninterrupted, focused time on a task to bend your entire mind toward the goal.
Other developers call it "Flow" or "the Zone."

In this episode of Adventures in .NET the panel interviews Geovanny Alzate Sandoval, the creator of Simmy. Geovanny tells the panel all about Simmy, Poly, and chaos engineering. After defining each of these terms, the panel asks Geovanny questions about how they work. Chaos engineering intentionally breaks things to find weaknesses in systems, Simmy simulates those breaks and Poly helps create resilient systems.
Before injecting chaos into your system, Geovanny has two suggestions. First, implement your resilience strategy. Second, have a good monitoring system in place to help you observe the chaos. He shares resources for those wanting to get started with Simmy and chaos engineering.
Simmy offers three different policies, fault, latency and behavior. Geovanny shares examples of each of these policies and explains what you are hoping to break and fix with each. He explains how Simmy can be used with an azure app and considers the possibilities of that use case Simmy currently gets in your system through Poly but they are working on a way to change that. He shares their plans for Simmy.

In this episode of Adventures in .NET the panel interviews Phillip Carter. Phillip works on the .NET team. His primary focus is F# and F# tooling. Phillip starts off by explaining that F# is a functional programming language, whereas C# is an object-oriented language. Phillip explains how F# is a nice way for those who want to do functional programming to do so with a full ecosystem and quality tools and libraries.
Phillip explains how F# is used in .NET. Some prefer to use only F# but the major mix and match F# and C#. He shares projects he has done mixing and matching F# and C#, explaining how he did and the other methods used to use both F# and C#.
The panel discusses the popularity of F# and where it is most well known. Phillip shares the two biggest sites where F# sharp is used are Jet and Walmart e-commerce, their backends are build using an F# microservice. He explains that a lot of financial institutions use F# in their backends as it is good for number crunching. The panel considers the growth of F# since .NET Core 2.0 was released. After .NET Core 2.0 was released F# usage spiked, F# microservices and open source projects became much more common.
The panel asks Phillip about what Blazor means for F#. He explains that in the past, some people are really into Fable. This tool takes F# syntax trees into JavaScript syntax trees. Currently, the web assembly is starting to heat up now that Blazor is here. F# can plug directly into the Blazor runtime making it a pretty viable alternative.
The panel considers the mental hurdles required when switching from C# to F#. Phillip explains how that switch may be easier for some than for others. Using an example of building a web service, Phillip explains how someone approaches a process or a problem will determine how easily someone can transition from C# to F#. He elaborates, explaining that if a developer is really used to object-oriented programming and it’s patterns it may be more difficult to move to F#.
The panel shares some of its views on F#, wondering if it isn’t easier to learn for those who are new to programming. Phillip considers their views and explaining that even though they can’t prove it they have also seen this possibility. At the Ignite conference, they are coming out with a preview Jupiter Notebook tooling, putting C# and F# on top and integrating it into the Jupiter ecosystem. Phillip admits they have been wondering if they might not be able to reach the non or secondary programmers more easily with F#. F# may be more familiar to those who only have a simple background in Python they picked up in college. He explains how overwhelming C# can be to someone who has never seen anything like it before.
Phillip compares the syntax of C# and F#, explaining that they are very different. F# is more similar to Python than to C#. F# is white space significant and uses type inferences. He explains how these differences might trip up someone who is familiar with C#. C# and F# have a few similarities like you can still dot into something just like in C#.
The panel wonders what kind of cooperation is seen between the F# and C# teams at Microsoft. Phillip explains that they work very closely and sharing a few examples. He worked on nullable reference types in C# 8.0. He explains that they have a mindset, they are all Microsoft in the end and what C# and F# to interoperate as best they can.
F# is currently on version 4.7, which was released with C# 8.0. He shares some of the changes made to F# with this latest version. Including, core library fixes, performance fixes and the cleaning up of little syntactical quirks. He explains that is a culmination of a lot of minor changes to improve the language. Phillip shares what’s coming in F# 5.0 which will hopefully be released with the .NET 5.0 release.
The episode ends as Phillip shares some resources for getting started with F#. He encourages everyone to give it a try. He promises that even if you decide its not for you, it will help you see your code in new ways.

In this episode of Adventures in .NET the panel interviews Patrick Smacchia who is known for his static analyzer, NDepend. The panel discusses NDepend, Patrick explains a bit about what is and how it works along with his history in .NET. Patrick is here to explains SOLID, an acronym introduced by Robert C. Martin outlining principles for object-oriented programming.
These principles teach programmers to use object-oriented programming correctly. The panel considers what can go wrong when object-oriented programming is misused. They also explain that the most important thing when it comes to SOLID is to try your best, it is impossible to be perfect in anything. Patrick explains that when your code is SOLID is will be easily testable and maintainable.
The five principles are Single Responsibility, Open-Closed, Liskov Substitution, Interface Segregation, and Dependency Inversion. Of all the principles, Single Responsibility is unique. Patrick explains that this principle is all about organization and advises developers to be very careful when using this principle in your domain. The domain is where it is most important to have SOLID code and it needs to be 100% covered by testing. The panel shares that this is the principle that they try the hardest to follow.
The definition given by Patrick for Single Responsibility is that a class should have a single responsibility or a class should have only one reason to change. Patrick warns the listeners that this is a very complex concept that is difficult to explain. The panel explains that Single Responsibility is a way to accomplish a separation of concern. The panel outlines the benefits of following this principle while Patrick shares some examples and walk the listeners implementing this principle.
The next principle is Open-Closed. Patrick’s definition of this principle is modules should be open for extension but closed for modification. He and the panel dive deeper into what this means. He advises developers when designing a class to be very careful when choosing the point of variation and make sure you don’t change the code in your base class. Caleb shares the problems they experienced in one of his recent projects when this principle was not followed. Patrick explains why the solution is more often the interface rather than the base class.
Moving on to the next principle, the Liskov substitution. Patrick explains how this principle using the example of the ibird. The Liskov substitution principle is that objects in a program should be replaceable so that you can’t tell the difference. In the ibird example, you can not replace the ibird with any bird because if the ibird can fly but the replacement bird is an ostrich it cannot perform the necessary functions. Patrick explains how ilists are in opposition to the Liskov principle.
Next is the Interface Segregation Principle. Patrick explains how this relates to the Single Responsibility Principle. He also discusses how the Liskov Substitution and the Interface Segregation are two sides of the same coin when it comes to designing interfaces. The Interface Segregation explains that many smaller client-specific interfaces are better that one large interface with everything on it.
The final principle is Dependency Inversion. Patrick explains that this principle does not help you design your interface, it helps you organize dependencies into your code structure. This principle advises developers to depend on abstractions. He explains how this principle relates to dependency injection. The panel considers the damage dependencies can cause in a codebase if improperly used. Patrick explains when a developer will want to use abstractions and when to use classes. He explains that these 5 principles will become natural and feel like common sense as developers gain experience.
Switching gears, the panel moves on to discuss a blogpost Patrick wrote explaining 4 predictions he had for the future of .NET. He wrote the article because of the announcement that .NET core will become .NET 5. The future of .NET has a great impact on NDepend and Patrick wanted to give some perspective to the changes and how they might affect his company.
His first prediction is that .NET standards won’t evolve much. Patrick explains that the purpose of .NET Standards was to support all the .NET flavors and with only .NET to support that job will become much simpler. He also speculates on the reasons for Microsoft wanting only one .NET. Some of the reasons he lists are that Microsoft does not have an endless workforce and .NET core is open source and multiplatform.
Patrick’s second prediction greatly impacts NDepend. His prediction is that Visual Studios will run on .NET 5, explaining why he is so sure that they will switch Visual Studios over to .NET 5. Patrick believes that it may take a while for the switch to happen. The panel considers the future of Windows.
The third prediction Patrick makes is that .NET will propose a cross-platform UI framework. Microsoft did a poll asking developers about the need for a cross-platform UI framework. The panel speculates how this framework will happen. Patrick wonders at the possibility of WPF. The panel brings up the final prediction, that Blazor has a bright future, and wonder if Blazor could become that cross-platform UI framework.

In this week’s episode of Adventures in .NET the panel is joined by Wai Liu, the new panelist, and Jason Bock, the special guest. Wai shares a bit about himself, currently, he works as a PM from Australia. His focus lately has been on Azure and .NET Core. Jason Bock introduces himself next, he is a practice lead for application development in .NET. He is a writer and a speaker, often about the new features of C#. The panel interviews Jason about the new features found in C# 8.0.
The first thing developers should know about C# 8.0 is that it is no longer tied to .NET Framework. Jason explains that everything is slowly shifting to .NET Core and developers can only enjoy all the C# 8.0 features with .NET Core 3. He lists that some of the features can be used with .NET Framework.
The panel discusses migration to .NET Core from .NET Framework. Jason explains that it is not a question of if we should migrate but when should we migrate. Not only does .NET Core have better capabilities and speed but Microsoft is focussing all their future efforts in .NET core. Jason invites everyone to think about switching over and start making a plan.
The panel considers how hard it will be to move over large applications into .NET Core. Jason explains that since Microsoft has many applications in .NET framework they are in the same boat as other large enterprises. So, support for .NET Framework 4.8 will continue to be supported. The panel considers their current projects and how migrating could affect them.
Moving on to the new features of C# 8.0, the panel considers the two most exciting new features, default interface members and nullable reference types. They start by discussing nullable reference types. Nullable reference types allow developers to annotate types in parameters and properties and say that they are nullable.
The panel discusses the opt-in function of this feature and why that is necessary at this stage of its release. Jason explains how this all works and the two main purposes for nullable reference types. First, it is trying to reduce the number of null references developers get. Second, it allows developers to try expressing intent.
The panel shares their excitement to give nullable reference types a try. They also warn developers that they may want to run away when they first turn it on. Jason advises developers to turn it on in new projects, but for large projects, he advises developers to turn it on a profile basis. He explains that Microsoft is just getting started with nullable reference types and will continue to make changes all the way to .NET 5.0.
Moving on to discuss default interface members, Jason predicts that default interface members will see a lot of abuse. The panel expresses their discomfort with the feature as it is a new way of using an interface. Jason explains the intent of this feature is to provide a way for developers to define an interface where some of the members have implementations. It is commonly referred to as default interface methods as most examples are with methods. The goal of default interface members is to improve versioning with interfaces. Jason explains that there are many possibilities for this feature and goes over some of them with the panel.
Jason explains that the difference between an interface and an abstract class is, an abstract class can have constructors and state whereas an interface cannot. The panel considers how default interface members could be considered normal practice in the future. Jason explains that there is still a lot of uncertainty around when to use them and when not to, it will take some time for default interface members to find their place.
The other features discussed are the enhancements made to pattern matching, asynchronous streaming, enhancements of the using, ranges and indices. They explain briefly what each of these features does and how they will improve the .NET experience.

In this week’s episode of Adventures in .NET the panel interviews Wade Gausden, who is well known for his website dotnetcoretutorials.com. When Wade got started in .NET around .NET 2.0 the documentation was terrible, so he started this website where he would write posts about the problems he ran into and how he solved them. The panel discusses how as .NET and C# have grown and evolved, making things easier.
Wade shares his experience using .NET Core on a greenfield project he was consulting on. Caleb shared his experience porting over to .NET Core from .NET Framework. While .NET Core was a breath of fresh air, they had to use a lot of workarounds to get the result they wanted. Wade commiserates telling the panel that one of his most popular posts still is about how to send an email in .NET Core.
Caleb expresses his appreciation for all the work they did to make porting over easier in .NET 2.. He answers Wade’s questions about how they ported over. Caleb tells him how he spent months figuring out how to rearchitect and that their main pain point was code first migrations. Caleb shares a little about his current project, where they are using .NET Core 2.0 and Angular 6. His next project will be using .NET Core 3.0 and Angular 8.
This leads the panel to discuss the treasures that can be found in the release of .NET 3.0. They discuss null reference management and Blazor. The panel compares webforms and Blazor, with all they get with Blazor, webforms are dead. The panel is sure that nullable reference types will get a lot of use along with iAsyncEnumerble.
Other new releases in .NET 3.0 they are not so sure will get as much use, such as the range type. They discuss the potential of default interface methods once people wrap their minds around the idea. Wade explains what IL Linker Support is and what it does, it is basically tree shaking for .NET.
The panel wonders at what it means for Winforms and WPF apps now that .NET Core supports desktop apps. They think that it won’t actually get that much use. Caleb speculates that it was a business move to help prepare for .NET 5 as a way to preserve it’s cross platforming capabilities.
The panel asks Wade about his favorite posts on his site. Wade explains that he loves the multipart series, his most recent being on the use of dapper. Dapper runs SQL statements and helps protect you from SQL injections and other things of that nature. He wrote it to help a friend of his understand the importance of knowing a little SQL. The panel chimes in, explaining that when it comes to working in .NET and C# SQL is essential.

On this week's Adventures in .NET, Charles Max Wood (Chuck) talks about the recent Twitter thread about 10x engineers. He goes through each of the points in the tweet and talks about each of them in turn. There are only two points he sort of agrees with, and believes the rest to be absolute garbage. One of the issues with this tweet is that it doesn’t define what a 10x engineer is.
Defining a 10x engineer is difficult because it is also impossible to measure a truly average engineer because there are many factors that play into measuring productivity. Chuck turns the discussion to what a 10x engineer is to him and how to find one. A 10x engineer is dependent on the organization that they are a part of, because they are not simply found, they are made.
When a 10x engineer is added to a team, the productivity of the entire team increases. Employers have to consider firstly what you need in your team and how a person would fit in. You want to avoid changing the entire culture of your organization. Consider also that a 10x engineer may be hired as a 2x engineer, but it is the employer that turns them into a 10x engineer.
Overall, Chuck believes these tweets are asinine because it’s impossible to measure what makes a 10x engineer in the first place, and hiring a person that fits the attributes in the list would be toxic to your company.

In this week’s episode of Adventure in .NET the panel shares their experiences using LINQ or Language Integrated Query. They discuss the benefits of using LINQ along with the struggles they have with it. They share some of their favorite tips and tricks for using LINQ.
LINQ is something .NET developers use on a daily basis. The panel starts by giving a little background on LINQ. LINQ was introduced to the .NET framework 3.5 with the intent of providing a better way of dealing with data. The panel explains what they did before using LINQ and what it was like making the switch.
LINQ has two different syntaxes, the query syntax, and the lambda syntax. The panel discusses the similarities between query syntax and SQL. They explain why they didn’t just use SQL. Because SQL and query were so similar, the panel both started by using query. They share different ways to get used to the query syntax and the lambda syntax.
One benefit of using LING is that it is supported in all .NET languages and has been ported over to other languages such as PHP, JavaScript, and Typescript. The panel discusses using in it Angular Typescript and the similarities between it and C#.
The panel reveals that there are a number of features in .NET that were built to support LINQ. Lambda expressions, anonymous type, and tuples are some examples of features that support LINQ. The panel defines these features and explains how they help you sort through collections of data.
The panel considers why some programmers are turned off by LINQ. They suppose it is because of its foreign look and that it is not highly structured. Also, LINQ has a lot of syntactic sugar, doing a lot of stuff for you behind the scenes. The panel discusses ways LINQ simplifies workflow and shares tips for using LINQ to simply code.
Programmers often complain that using LINQ to objects or LINQ to entities and chaining LINQ extensions is an improper use of LINQ. The panel explains how using LINQ this way makes the code cleaner and more readable. The panel compares the readability of LINQ statements to SQL statements. They explain why LINQ is easier to read and understand.
The panel shares their tips and tricks for using LINQ statements and deferred executions. They discuss the possible use cases for using deferred executions. They also consider the downsides and gotchas to watch for when using deferred executions.
LINQ to entity and the Entity framework are considered. The panel discusses the common complaints made about Entity. They address these complaints, explaining how LINQ to entity and the framework has improved. The panel suggests the use of LINQPad for LINQ statements to see the generated sequel statement. They explain what to watch out for when using LINQ pad this way.
One struggle panel discusses is knowing when to use first or firstordefault. They share tips, things to look for when using either one of these in LINQ. First and single are compared, the panel explains why they use first more than single.
The possibilities for extension methods in LINQ are considered. Along with using C# extension methods the panel discussing using custom extension methods. They share their favorite third party extension methods and explains how they have helped them simplify their code.
While the panel is aware that many programmers are averse to mixing functional programming and object-oriented programming, the panel explains that there are a few functional programming concepts built into LINQ. The benefits of being able to use functional programming in C# is explained.
The panel considers some of the hardest things to do in LINQ and share tips on how to better understand them. Select many and aggregate LINQ queries being to examples they share. The explain what powerful tools they can be. The panel ends the episode with some tips for improving performance when using LINQ

Episode Summary In this week’s episode of Adventures in .NET the panel interviews Filip Ekberg, Microsoft MVP, about using async, await, and the new features in C# 8. They begin by discussing the evolution of running tasks and multithreading in async. Filip describes the evolution beginning with background workers, through task parallel libraries finally to async and await. The panel considers how managing tasks has been made almost too easy.
Filip explains that there has been a drive to make everything asynchronous but explains that this approach doesn’t always make sense. The panel asks Filip when a developer should use async and await. If an application has a UI, Filip encourages the use of async and await and he outlines the benefits. He also explains that if someone wants to be a full-stack developer they need to understand async and await on both the serverside and clientside.
The panel wonders what the most common async and await mistakes are in .NET. Filip shares a couple of the most common mistakes he sees. The first is deadlocking an application because of the inappropriate methods such as .result and .wait on tasks. The second is marking methods as async without running the await keyword. He explains what these mistakes do to your application and gives advice on avoiding these mistakes.
The panel expresses past frustrations in making all methods especially tops methods when in ASP.NET. Filip gives the panel advice on making it asynchronous top to bottom and ways to handle those aggravating top methods. He also explains how to use the await keyword and state machines effectively.
Debugging in async is the next topic the panel considers. Filip explains why debugging is so tricky in asynchronous applications. He gives a few tips, his biggest piece of advice is to update Visual Studio and you should get more help in debugging than from older versions.
The panel moves on to discuss C# 8. Filip explains that C# is his language, he loves it! He shares three new changes to the language features in C# 8. They made changes to how tuples work, pattern matching and null reference types.
Tuples are the first change the panel considers. Filip explains what tuples are and what they do. Tuples allow you to represent a type without actually using that type. The panel considers how tuples have changed in C# 8, they are still position based but are more flexible in calling them.
Next, the panel discusses null reference types. The control null reference types allow over nulls is considered. Filip shares some recommendations for using null reference types. The panel considers what might happen if someone were to use null reference types in an existing application. The wonder if it would have any benefit or if it would break the whole application.
The final feature they discuss is pattern matching. Filip explains the benefit of using the new pattern matching with the new tuples feature in C# 8. The new pattern matching can be used to find tupple patterns, position patterns, and property patterns.

Episode Summary In this episode of Adventures in .NET, James Montemagno, a PM in the developer division at Microsoft working with Xamarin shares with the panel all of the exciting things happening in the Xamarin world. Charles Max Wood invites listeners to check out James’s appearances on a different DevChatTV podcast, The iPhreaks Show. Charles expresses his excitement to see Xamarin from a .NET perspective.
James starts the discussion by sharing how he got into Xamarin and .NET. He explains what he loves about .NET. James worked for Xamarin during the transition into Microsoft, he shares what it was like and how the unification of the two made their products even better. The panel discusses the changes in Microsoft’s practices over the past ten years, becoming more opensource friendly and less focused on selling products.
What is Xamarin, is the next thing the panel answers. James explains that Xamarin helps developers build native apps in C#. He goes on to explain how the versions of Xamarin change based on the platform, Android, iOS and tooling inside visual studio.
The topic turns to how Xamarin runs. James explains that there is a common theme in Xamarin, flexibility. Choosing how Xamarin is run is up to the developer, who can use AOT (ahead of time) or JIT (just in time). Charles explains what AOT and JIT mean and how they affect application size and performance. James explains how Xamarin runs differently for Android and iOS.
James introduces a brand new mode called Startup Tracing and explains how it can reduce the start-up time for your Xamarin apps by up to 60% by using a small trace of AOT. He shares the future goals for this mode and explains that it is free and can be used today.
The next concern the panel has is about sharing code between different platforms and how this works with Xamarin. James explains that this problem is solved with Xamarin forms, Xamarin forms has everything a mobile app developer could want. In Xamarin forms developers can create pages to share cross-platform or simply build their whole app for all platforms. James even explains how a developer can make platform-specific adjustments to the code.
James defines customer-driven development and explains how this allows them to create the best product for developers. The flexibility and capabilities in UI’s and controls allows developers to choose what their app looks like. Caleb asks about the built template components that allows the developer to architect the navigation in their applications. James explains one of the tools, Shell and how it helps you set up your navigation how you want it while handling all the messiness with minimal code.
Charles asks James about library integration into Xamarin. James starts by sharing what comes in the box with Xamarin, 100% API coverage for both Android and iOS. How this works is, a team looks at the needs of developers and makes a list of the necessary, popular and desired libraries and creates API bindings for them. Libraries that don’t make that list can have a binding generated with Xamarins binding generator, which will include the necessary features needed to use the library.
The panel changes the topic to the new Xamarin features that James is most excited for. James mentions a one-stop library called Xamarin essentials that will hold all the things a developer might need. He also includes Xaml hot reload for Xamarin forms, this feature will create a better level of productivity as it reloads around typos and mistakes allowing developers to stay in their workflow. The panel discusses the other benefits of a feature like this. Caleb Wells warns how addictive a good hot reload can be.
The episode ends with James giving advice and resources for getting into Xamarin. Charles praises the Microsoft documentation. Caleb gives an endorsement for Microsoft Learn. Charles invites listeners to suggest topics and guests at devchat.tv.
