As someone posted about a F# discord server, is there a C# or a more general .net discord server people hangout in?

#csharp #dotnet

been enjoying building a lil #dotnet application to deserialise a game's save file to read the quest flags. doesn't have any utility or monetisation pathway, just a bit of fun.

it's been a while since i enjoyed writing code - usually i'd just start dreading the effort and stop before i start

Microsoft Build 2023 day 1 has provided a lot of great developer information. .NET 8, Azure DevBox, Azure Deployment Environments, Azure Load Test, GitHub Advanced Security for Azure DevOps, Azure Fabric, GitHub Copilot, M365 Copilot, Power BI Copilot, and more. #MSBuild #dotnet #msazure #github #copilot

Are you a #dotnet developer using a #mac?

Yes?

Ok, what are your top tools that you cannot do without?

Do you use VS for Mac, VSCode or Rider (fyi, I'm currently on board with the latter).

What about git clients (gitkraken for me right now)

But mainly, what image manipulation apps do you use. What about Todo and note taking apps - and maybe RSS readers.

Do you make use of docker?

Seriously thinking about going all in on Mac for day to day development - trying to fill in the blanks.

@jamesmontemagno as you use a Macbook as your daily driver I'm interested in what model you are using.

I'm looking to reconcile my Windows/Mac setup to a single device and currently the Mac is in pole position - but I don't want to buy something that's not up to the job, i.e. #dotnet web and mobile development, but I also don't want to fork out for something that's far more capable than I will ever need.

Thanks in advance 🙂

Really getting on well with #jetbrains #rider - more so than I ever did with Visual Studio for Mac.

Rider is so much more capable and finding myself more productive with all the keyboard shortcuts, something I never quite got to grips with in #vsformac which feels very much like a second class citizen compared to it's Windows equivalent.

This also helps me make the decision on Windows or Mac for my new laptop - looks like the #Macbook has it

DotNetCore, Azure AD, and SAML

A wee tutorial on using these 3 technologies together

Today’s #dotnet + M1 excitement: discovering that something, somewhere in my dev environment setup scripts is running a dotnet project targeting the x86 architecture and apparently it will not happily coexist with the ARM runtimes on the same machine.
It is not trivial to discover which architecture your installed sdks & runtimes target, either. The good news is that none of mine are the culprit here?!

I’ve spent almost two weeks at work updating nuget packages across our solution. It was tedious but necessary work having to update in small batches then build and run unit tests.

Things I learned:
- Don’t leave your updates for “another day”
- Visual Studio lacks a few features in the package updates function
- .net framework is a pain
- Powershell is awesome

#DotNet #Nuget #Powershell #VisualStudio

@rockylhotka nice! Arguably out of scope depending on whether you think of #dotnet as a runtime or the input languages but #fsharp + #fablecompiler unlock the path to JavaScript/ web applications , Flutter via dart) and possibly even #wasm via #rust

I’ve spent the best part of three days now debugging an OpenIdConnect issue at work.

The .Net 6 app runs locally (Windows) without trouble, but when I publish to an app service (Windows) in Azure it says the RedirectUri has already been added to the dictionary.

Google/Bing turns up nothing matching the exception.

I’m at a bit of loss, to be honest. Obviously it’s some environmental thing but I can’t think what.

Yo! #dotnet people do you know of anything similar to @tpolecat's excellent https://scalameta.org/mdoc/ to ensure documentation is living and correct.

@danclarke I did a tiny integration between a CCTV and a motion activated sprinkler. To reduce false positives, the camera’s motion detector connected to an #fsharp #dotnet web server with some “business logic” that talked to an IoT hub to power up the sprinkler.

So, as a #dotnet developer should I invest the time learning #blazor? Is it being used in anger out there or is #razorpages the front runner.. or is it something else?

Hello everybody! After lurking around Mastodon for a few weeks I'm finally getting around to doing an #introduction post.

I am a software engineer mostly focused on/interested in #dotnet working at Self Esteem Brands currently. I love technology and podcasts (especially podcasts ABOUT technology) and also had a short run of doing wedding photography recently.

Strongly liberal political view but mostly just love people and want to spread joy, not divisiveness.

Reach out and let's chat!

I must be missing something but why does the default Dockerfile generated by Visual Studio have restore, build and publish stages when “dotnet publish” does all three in one command?

My Dockerfile is just:
Set up base image
Copy project contents to build image
Dotnet publish
Copy publish to base
Run

#DotNet #Docker

@bluegrue most of what I do is good old web development with #dotnet but I also do some mobile development with #xamarin and now #maui so if I want to target #ios I'll need a way to build and debug them - which normally requires a Mac

Me: Update nuget package
VS for Mac: Failed, rolling back

Ok, but why damn you, why?

#visualstudiiomac #dotnet #visualstudio

Today's spicy take

All programming languages and tools will eventually die, that's not spicy... Just evolution happens... So what's the spicy idea

The #jvm will outlast #dotnet as a runtime and #csharp will outlast #java

The JVM has proven to be more successful at language innovation on top of the JVM which will let the jvm last longer, but Java is already struggling against other JVM languages. C# though with no significant dotnet competition will likely last longer than Java
