• Performance and stability improvements.
• Optimization and testing for .NET 6.
• All UIs and templates have been updated for “.NET 6” style, which means they now use the new hosting API, and all UIs have been converted to Razor pages.
• Added support for CIBA, which was the last missing piece for full FAPI compliance. 

As React celebrates its 11th anniversary in 2024, it’s worth looking ahead to the exciting developments in the React ecosystem. In this blog, we’ll explore various aspects of the ecosystem, building on what was happening in 2023 and what you can expect in the coming year. 

Web application development has evolved with the rise of new technologies and frameworks. Two of the most popular technologies for building interactive web applications are Blazor and React. In this article, we will compare Blazor and React and highlight their differences with examples.

SQL Server 2019 is designed to solve challenges of the modern data professional including:

• Store enterprise data in a data lake and offer SQL and Spark query capability overall data
• Reduce the need for Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) applications by eliminating data movement
• Integrate and secure machine learning applications with scalable performance
• Reduce the need for application and query changes to gain a boost in performance
• Increase confidential computing of data through hardware enclaves
• Increase application and database uptime and availability through features like ADR (Advanced Database Recovery)
• Extend the power of the T-SQL language in a secure and robust fashion
• Run applications and deploy databases across multiple operating systems and platforms with compatibility
• Reduce the risk of upgrades while using new SQL capabilities when you are ready though inbuilt database compatibility levels

Security is one of the most important aspects of any application – and when we talk about security, particularly in ASP.NET applications, it is not limited to development. A secure app involves multiple layers of security in the configuration, framework, web server, database server, and more. In this post, we’ll take a look at the top nine tips for writing secure applications in ASP.NET. 

Let’s continue our journey to learn the MVVM pattern, applied to Universal Windows apps development. After we’ve learned the basic concepts in the previous post, now it’s time to start writing some code. As already mentioned in the previous post, we’re going to leverage MVVM Light as toolkit to help us implementing the pattern: since it’s the most flexible and simple to use, it will be easier to understand and apply the basic concepts we’ve learned so far.
