Xamarin allows you to build native Android, iOS, and Windows applications using .NET. Common patterns, such as MVVM, combined with good application layering, will maximize code sharing and result in an application that is easier to understand, test and maintain.
Implementing Authentication and Authorization with ASP.NET Core 2 - Chris KlugAuthentication and authorization is not a fun topic for most people. It is generally that thing that has to be there, but nobody really cares about. And on top of that, every time the requirements are a little different.

The State of C# - What Have I Missed - Filip EkbergOne of the most popular programming language on the market is getting even better. With every iteration of C# we get more and more features that are meant to make our lives as developers a lot easier.

There are many things to keep in mind while building the systems tha
Designing Wonderful .NET APIs - James Newton-KingThere are .NET libraries that are complex to setup, hard to understand, difficult to debug, and impossible to extend. And then there are .NET libraries for the same task that wonderfully just work. Why do some libraries succeed where others fail?In this session we will discuss what makes a well desi
Pushing C# to the limit - Joe AlbahariC# is a language of breadth. At one end it allows low-level programming with pointers and lock-free synchronization; at the other end, it sports high-level features such as closures, expressions trees and asynchronous functions.Which leads us to a challenge: can we write a non-contrived program that
Blazor, a new framework for browser-based .NET apps - Steve SandersonToday, nearly all browser-based apps are written in JavaScript (or similar languages that transpile to it). That’s fine, but there’s no good reason to limit our industry to basically one language when so many powerful and mature alternate languages and programming platforms exist. Starting now,
