We are very pleased to announce the launch of our Open Source project - Fast Report Open Source.
We are hoping to develop a friendly community of .Net Core developers who will share our eagerness to create fast, powerful and convenient reporting tool for Windows, Windows Server, Linux and MacOS.
We also encourage you to be a part of the global reporting team! Join us on GitHub: github.com/FastReports/FastReport 

From today most of the Iranian developers who work on free/open-source projects get mail about suspending their accounts because of the U.S sanction over Iran , also they want a non-iranian passport to unlock accounts which means if your Iranian who works for a tech company remotely or using their service for developing free software are banned too!

Redis (REmote DIctionay Server) is a very popular open-source, networked, in-memory, key-value data store, sometimes referred to as a data structure server which also comes with optional durability. Redis is well known for high performance, flexibility, provides a rich set of data structures, and a simple straightforward API.  

Redis Fundamentals for .NET Developers

Redis is an open source, in-memory data store used by millions of developers as a database, cache, streaming engine, and even a message broker.
In this live sessions, Stephen Lorello, Senior Field Engineer at Redis, joins us to show the the fundamental features .NET developers show know about using Redis 

Spark is an open source computing framework for Big Data, and it’s becoming increasingly popular, especially in machine learning scenarios. In this article I’ll describe how to install Spark on a machine running a Windows OS, and explain basic Spark functionality from a .NET developer’s point of view.
