With NServiceBus 7, you get all the benefits of NServiceBus with the cross-platform capabilities of .NET Core. You can develop your code on a Mac and deploy on your favorite flavor of Linux. You can reap the DevOps benefits of hosting your endpoints in Docker containers and use container orchestration technologies like Kubernetes on their own or through managed services like Azure Kubernetes Service or Amazon Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes. You can even run NServiceBus on a Raspberry Pi.

Discuss how to create simple Xamarin.iOS apps to identify Links, Hylian Shield, and a Master Sword using CoreML and Azure.

We’re excited to announce the release of .NET Core 2.1. It includes improvements to performance, to the runtime and tools. It also includes a new way to deploy tools as NuGet packages. We’ve added a new primitive type called Span<T> that operates on data without allocations. There are many other new APIs, focused on cryptography, compression, and Windows compatibility. It is the first release to support Alpine Linux and ARM32 chips. You can start updating existing projects to target .NET Core 2.1 today. The release is compatible with .NET Core 2.0, making updating easy.

In my previous article, I created a basic blockchain that was used to store transactions. The basic blockchain can be tampered with easily. Even though there was a validation mechanism, by updating a block and re-calculating hashes of all blocks after it, the tampered blockchain passed validation. The situation could become worse in the real world because re-calculation can be done in a short period of time with a modern computer. We must come up with a solution to stop attackers from tampering a blockchain. The solution actually is pretty simple and straightforward. That is Proof of Work.

Setting a letter spacing for a Label in Android and iOS turned into an interesting research for me. I would expect that such a common task would be easily done with a help of a Renderer or an Effec…

In this C# 8 tutorial, I am going to introduce a selection of currently planned features which will most probably end up in the final release. All of the C# 8 features are still early in development and are likely to change.

On May-25th, General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) becomes active. With that many articles available on GDPR, I need to write one as well. However, this one is about ASP.NET Core. ASP.NET Core …

I recently had an opportunity to help a developer with an ASP.NET Core app that was functionally correct but slow when under a heavy user load. We found a few different factors contributing to the app’s slowdown while investigating, but the majority of the issues were some variation of blocking threads that could have run in a non-blocking way. It was a good reminder for me just how crucial it is to use non-blocking patterns in multi-threaded scenarios like a web app.
