Guest Jon P Smith shows how he built a demo e-commerce book selling site that uses EF Core. He started with 700 books then scaled through 100,000 books to ½ million books. At each stage he compares the performance of each improvement, and the extra work to get that performance. 

ASP.NET Core applications can be tested with different testing frameworks and Entity Framework Core makes testing specially easy by removing different technical problems from our way by using in-memory data provider. This blog posts shows how to unit test controllers that use data from Entity Framework Core. 

Did you know that DotVVM can be used to incrementally modernize old ASP.NET Web Forms applications and lift them to .NET Core? It is much easier than doing a full rewrite, and the application can be deployed at any time during the entire process.

• Install DotVVM NuGet package in your Web Forms site
• Create a DotVVM master page using the same CSS
• Start converting ASPX pages to DotHTML syntax, one at a time
• When all the Web Forms pages are gone, change your CSPROJ to use .NET Core

This extension is optimized for developers who wants to develop ASP.NET Core 2 and Entity Framework Core 2. These code snippets contains C#, MSBuild, Razor and 

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.

Problem / solution format brings an easier understanding on how to build things, giving an immediate feedback. Starting from this idea, the blog post will present step by step how to build

a web application to store your ideas in an easy way, adding text notes, either from desktop or mobile, with few characteristics: run fast, save on the fly whatever you write, and be reasonably reliable and secure.

This blog post will implement just the backend, WebApi and the database access, in the most simple way. Next blog post will cover the front end, using Angular. Then, there will be an additional article on how to increase the performance and the security. 

Learn how to harness the power of the Syncfusion UI components from within a Blazor server application.
