(Peter Vogel) Let’s say that you have an asynchronous method — a method that looks something like this one that returns a Customer object wrapped inside a Task object:

(Tim Iskhakov) The other day I was working on a client project when I stumbled upon a ticket that required me to move some functionality from an old legacy system to our .NET Core backend.

(Mike Brind) A few weeks ago, Steve Sanderson blogged about publishing a package for a prototype Blazor file input component, designed to make working with user-supplied files in Blazor applications a lot easier.

(Ben Nadel) I have a really embarrassing confession to make: until just recently, I thought that the Redis List data-type worked like the ColdFusion List data-type. Which is to say, I assumed that it was just an abstraction over simple, delimited string values.

(Andy) Have you ever needed to debug or profile an executable (.exe file) that you can’t build locally? Then the least known Visual Studio project type, the EXE project, is for you!

(Ben Nadel) About a year ago, we converted our production app from Adobe ColdFusion to Lucee CFML. The conversion itself took several months (depending on how hard you squint); and, since the conversion, we’ve occasionally stumbled over a few inconsistencies between Adobe ColdFusion and Lucee CFML.

(Srinath M S) With the Skip and Take methods in LINQ, paging has become a lot easier.

(Steve Gordon) In this post, part of my gRPC with ASP.NET Core series, we’ll explore enabling response compression for gRPC services. NOTE: I’ll cover a few details about compression in this post which are from my early investigation into the options and techniques to configure calls.

(Ben Nadel) Two months ago, I read Shape Up: Stop Running in Circles and Ship Work That Matters by Ryan Singer. This is the latest book from Basecamp; and, like their other books, it’s filled with wonderfully thought-provoking concepts and perspectives.

(Peter Vogel) So you got excited about ASP.NET Core and started building an application in ASP.NET Core 2.0, 2.1, or 2.2. Now you’re wondering how much work is involved in migrating that application to Version 3.0 which came out in late September.
