Experiments with the new WASI workload in .NET 8 Preview 4
.NET 8 adds a new "wasi-experimental" workload, replacing the earlier Wasi.Sdk. This is a step towards giving .NET native, built-in support for server-side WebAssembly scenarios.
This video shows how to get started, then demonstrates how .NET+WASI creates possibilities for new kinds of apps and new ways to use .NET.

C# 7 is a major update with a lot of interesting new capabilities. And while there are plenty of articles on what you can do with it, there aren't quite as many on what you should do with it. Using the principles found in the .NET Framework Design Guidelines, we're going to take a first pass at laying down strategies for getting the most from these new features. 

Creating .NET Bindings for C Libraries with ObjectiveSharpie 

You can learn how the .NET ecosystem works on Stackify. It consists of runtimes (.NET Framework, .NET Core and Mono for Xamarin), class libraries, and a common infrastructure (runtime tools and languages).  

Scratch.js is a standalone library with no external dependencies which brings interactivity to your website by allowing you to generate scratch cards for your visitors.
Based on HTML5, scratch.js generate canvas on the fly and is optimized for all modern browsers and has touch support for mobile devices. You can use it to make scratch cards, coupons, promotionnal game and even advertisement.
