I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to setup and install ASP.NET Core 2.1 on Linux. I did it for the first time in 15 minutes with no previous experience with .NET Core on Linux. I did it the second time, in production, in 5 minutes by following these instructions.

In this article, I show you how to install the .NET Core runtime on CentOS, how to get a sample ASP.NET Core project running on Kestrel as a service for reliability, and how to configure both the code and the firewall to enable remote access. Finally, I discuss what I would do differently for actual production usage. 

In this post I described the problem that by default, DataAnnotation validation doesn't recursively inspect all properties in an object for DataAnnotation attributes. There are several solutions to this problem, but in this post I used the MiniValidation library from Damian Edwards. This simple library provides a convenience wrapper around DataAnnotation validation, as well as providing features like recursive validation. Finally I showed how you can replace the built-in DataAnnotation validation with a MiniValidation-based validator

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

builder.Services.AddOptions<MySettings>()
    .BindConfiguration("MySettings")
    .ValidateMiniValidation() // 👈 Replace with mini validation
    .ValidateOnStart();

var app = builder.Build();

OptionsValidationException: 
  DataAnnotation validation failed for 'MySettings' member: 'Nested.Value' with errors: 'The Value field is required.'.; 
  DataAnnotation validation failed for 'MySettings' member: 'Nested.Count' with errors: 'The field Count must be between 1 and 100.'.

We’re excited to announce general availability of F# 4.7 in conjunction with the .NET Core 3.0 release! In this post, I’ll show you how to get started, explain everything in F# 4.7 and give you a sneak peek at what we’re doing for the next version of F#. 

This is an initial release of a partial implementation of the .NET platform on top of the Java Virtual Machine, and compatible with Android runtime. The Bluebonnet bytecode compiler translates .NET CIL into Java bytecode in Java classes, and additional run-time support is provided by the Baselib library. 

The .NET Core Debugging with WSL 2 – Preview extension lets you run and debug your .NET Core console and web applications in WSL 2 from Visual Studio. This allows Windows developers targeting Linux production environments to have a higher fidelity local debugging experience.
