Today is the official GA release for .NET 5, and along with it we are excited to share the latest updates with our recent release of C#/WinRT version 1.0. C#/WinRT provides WinRT projection support for .NET 5 based apps. The Windows SDK leverages this technology and is now integrated with the .NET 5.0 SDK to expose Windows APIs through the new Target Framework Monikers. In addition to the Windows SDK support added for .NET 5, C#/WinRT itself allows component authors to build their own .NET 5 projections using the CsWinRT NuGet package.  

starting with this version, AutoMapper drops support for full .NET framework, as this release targets only netstandard2.1. 

Today, we’re releasing the first Developer Preview of Android 12, the next version of Android, for your testing and feedback.

What I've learned from 20 years of programming in C# with Joe Albahari with Q&A session - YouTube
In April 2001, I wrote and published my first C# program. Join me in discovering the most valuable principles that I've learned in the 20 years of C# programming that followed. We'll cover a range of topics, with plenty of samples and useful code that you can take away.
