To implement ChatGPT with .NET Core 7, you can use the OpenAI API to interact with the GPT-3 language model.

Just like our Mac client, you can now use GitHub for Windows to submit pull requests to GitHub or GitHub Enterprise, right from your desktop. 

In this article, we are going to learn about Vertical Slice Architecture in ASP.NET Core and the benefits it provides to make our code more maintainable. We’re also going to learn how it differs from traditional architecture and its advantages over the traditional approach. 

Sometimes, we want users to log in to our application using their existing credentials from third-party applications, such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, etc. In this article, we are going to look into the authentication of ASP.NET Core app using a Google account. 

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.
