Role of NoSQL Databases in Modern Applications 

Discover Bun - A Faster, Modern JavaScript Runtime 

A modern CSS framework based on Flexbox 

Modern software development practices value quick and continuous updates, following processes that minimize the impact of software failures. As important as identifying bugs early, finding out if changes are improving business value are equally important. These practices can only work when a monitoring solution is in place. This article explores options for adding observability to .NET Core apps. They have been collected based on interactions with customers using .NET Core in different environments. We will be looking into OpenTelemetry and Application Insights SDKs to add observability to a sample distributed application. 

Introducing .NET Multi-platform App UI
.NET MAUI simplifies the choices for .NET developers, providing a single stack that supports all modern workloads: Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows.
 

If you love TypeScript: Angular or React

If you love object-orientated-programming (OOP): Angular

If you need guidance, structure and a helping hand: Angular

If you like flexibility: React

If you love big ecosystems: React

If you like choosing among dozens of packages: React

If you love JS & the “everything-is-Javascript-approach”: React

If you like really clean code: Vue

If you want the easiest learning curve: Vue

If you want the most lightweight framework: Vue

If you want separation of concerns in one file: Vue

If you are working alone or have a small team: Vue or React

If your app tends to get really large: Angular or React

If you want to build an app with react-native: React

If you want to have a lot of developers in the pool: Angular or React

If you work with designers and need clean HTML files: Angular or Vue

If you like Vue but are afraid of the limited ecosystem: React

If you can’t decide, first learn React, then Vue, then Angular 

As part of our .NET unification, Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.Android will become part of .NET 6 as .NET for iOS and .NET for Android. Because these bindings are projections of the SDKs shipped from Apple and Google, nothing changes there, however build tooling, target framework monikers, and runtime framework monikers will be updated to match all other .NET 6 workloads. Our commitment to keeping .NET developers up-to-date with the latest mobile SDKs is foundational to .NET MAUI and remains firm. When .NET 6 ships, we expect to ship a final release of Xamarin SDKs in their current form that will be serviced for a year. All modern work will at that time shift to .NET 6.

 Blazor is the new Microsoft experimental framework that brings C# into any browser without a plug-in. It holds the promise of modern single-page applications, combined with the ability to use C# and its vast base-class library. Blazor takes C# development to a new level. It’s the final piece necessary to make the language a full-stack development tool. It will have all the power of the popular JavaScript frameworks, but based on the familiar languages, APIs and tooling of the Microsoft .NET Framework.
