The main theme for this ASP.NET Core release was to improve developer productivity and platform functionality with regard to building Web/HTTP APIs. As usual, we made some performance improvements as well.
Java is a high-level, cross-platform, object-oriented programming language that allows applications to be written once and run on a multitude of different devices. Java applications are ubiquitous, and the language is consistently ranked as one of the most popular and dominant in the world. Christopher Rose’s Java Succinctly Part 1 describes the foundations of Java–from printing a line of text to the console, to inheritance hierarchies in object-oriented programming. The e-book covers practical aspects of programming, such as debugging and using an IDE, as well as the core mechanics of the language.

Top Functional Programming Languages to Learn in 2024
Functional programming languages encourage a different approach to solving problems, often leading to cleaner and more predictable code. By focusing on pure functions, avoiding side effects, and utilizing higher-order functions, functional programming can improve code quality and reduce bugs. Additionally, these languages are well-suited for concurrent and parallel programming, making them valuable in modern, high-performance computing environments.
There are a lot of things to consider when choosing your database. Choose wisely because you’ll be married to that database for a long time. One case study is Amazon Marketplace which started with Oracle and tried to migrate after developing their own database solutions. The migration took somewhere between 5 to 10 years, and they seem to be still partially using Oracle. Though if your company reaches Amazon scale, then you’re probably doing very well.
Devart T4 Editor is a powerful Visual Studio add-in for editing T4 templates with syntax highlighting, intellisense, code outlining, and all features of a first-class text editor add-in for Visual Studio. It provides very high performance and makes creating T4 templates easier and faster. As well as ensuring extremely high level of performance, it also speeds up and facilitates the creation of T4 templates.
New features around file encoding
It is now possible to configure the files.encoding as well as files.autoGuessEncoding setting per language. VS Code also now supports CP 850 and CP 865 encoding.
k6 is an open-source load testing tool for testing the performance of your systems. It’s built with Go and JavaScript to integrate well into your development workflow, so you can stay on top of performance without fuzz.
In the last post, I looked at auto-property enhancements, with several comments pointing out some nicer usages. I recently went through the HtmlTags codebase, C# 6-ifying “all the things”, and auto property and expression bodied function members were used pretty much everywhere. This is a large result of the codebase being quite tightly defined, with small objects and methods doing one thing well.
Stop writing your changelogs manually
How do you usually keep track of the changes in your projects? Do you use GitHub releases? Do you update your changelogs manually? In this article, I will explain how I handle this topic. This is just one way of doing it, feel free to stick around if you are interested in the topic 🔥
Unhandled exceptions are a bit of a misnomer. In .NET, every exception is handled. By the time you access the specifics of an error in your Try-Catch block, the Framework has already analyzed the problem, built a structure to contain its details, examined the stack trace, and used reflection to pinpoint the location of the error, among other mundane tasks. In short, when errors occur, .NET serves them up to your code in a neatly packaged, highly examinable data block.
