ASP.NET Core and Blazor futures Q&A | DIS201H

#MSBuild

Join us for a discussion on the future of web development with the ASP.NET Core team. Get the team's perspective first-hand on the roadmap for ASP.NET Core and Blazor in .NET 8 and get all of your burning questions answered. We discuss Blazor, Native AOT, cloud native development, and anything else that you want to ask us about. 

WebAssembly is moving beyond the browser and is pitched to become a foundational element of modern cloud-native architecture. It lets any language compile to universal binaries that run on any OS or processor, robustly sandboxed and with great performance. This session covers a new approach to running .NET in WASI environments. You’ll see how your existing .NET code could be built into WASI-compliant modules, plus the opportunities this opens. This is experimental, not yet a committed product. 

.NET MAUI for Beginners
8 videos
.NET Multi-platform App UI (.NET MAUI) is a framework for building modern, multi-platform, natively compiled iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows apps using C# and XAML in a single codebase. In this video series you will learn how to get started with .NET MAUI, C#, and Visual Studio to build your very first cross-platform desktop and mobile app. 

Securing your application is bloody important. With so much jargon to sift through, it’s easy to get lost, for example there’s SSO, OAuth2, SAML 2.0, OpenID Connect, Federated Identity, 2FA, & MFA. Just to name a few! 😱 In this talk, Anthony will take an in depth look at Federated Identity using OpenID Connect and OAuth2 Framework for ASP. NET Core using Duende IdentityServer (aka IdentityServer 5). You will walk away knowing how to navigate the security options and avoid the madness. 

At The Bit, we understand how overwhelming  it can be to navigate through all the different tutorials online and try to teach yourself programming skills alone.

That’s why we’ve created The Bit — we’ll match you to a peer with similar skills and interests to take the tutorial of your choosing.

.NET apps can now run natively on Windows ARM64. This follows the support we added for Linux ARM64 in .NET Core 3.0. With .NET 5.0, you can develop web and UI apps on Windows ARM64 devices, and deliver your applications to users who own Surface Pro X and similar devices. You can already run .NET Core and .NET Framework apps on Windows ARM64, but via x86 emulation. It’s workable, but native ARM64 execution has much better performance. 

AutoMapper 8.1 adds a major new feature - attribute-based maps. Attribute maps let you easily declare maps on destination types when you have straightforward scenarios. Instead of: 

public class OrderProfile {  
    public OrderProfile() {
        CreateMap<Order, OrderIndexModel>();
        CreateMap<Order, OrderEditModel>();
        CreateMap<Order, OrderCreateModel>();
    }
}

You can declare your type maps directly on the destination types themselves with AutoMapAttribute: 

[AutoMap(typeof(Order))]
public class OrderIndexModel {  
    // members
}

[AutoMap(typeof(Order))]
public class OrderEditModel {  
    // members
}

[AutoMap(typeof(Order))]
public class OrderCreateModel {  
    // members
}
