Blazor shook up the .NET-centric web-dev space several years ago with its new ability to create web apps using C# and .NET instead of primarily coding UI with JavaScript like most every other framework, and it has been steadily advancing ever since. Here's a look at using RazorComponents for app integration.
Chris Klug keeps seeing developers using Entity Framework, Microsoft's open-source object-relational mapper (ORM) for .NET applications, in less optimal ways.
Since its inception as an intriguing experiment in leveraging WebAssembly to enable dynamic web development with C#, Blazor has evolved into a mature, fully featured framework. Integral to the ASP.NET Core ecosystem, Blazor offers developers a unique combination of server-side rendering and rich client-side interactivity.
Azure Cosmos DB is a fully managed distributed database that can be transparently replicated across regions while remaining highly performant and seamlessly scaling according to needs, making it great for applications of any scale.
Unfortunately, the exact number of AI Copilots unleashed on the world by Microsoft is apparently unknowable, like the value of Pi, beyond the comprehension of humans or machines.
PolyBase, a data virtualization feature for SQL Server, allows users to seamlessly query data from various external sources directly using T-SQL (Transact-SQL) without the need for separate client connection software.
In modern applications, data is being retrieved in asynchronous, real-time streams, as traditional pull requests where the clients asks for data from the server are becoming a thing of the past.
