Blogged: Running .NET in the browser without Blazor https://lnkd.in/evWSFYgR In this post I show how to run .NET in your browser without using Blazor, and instead rely on lower-level abstractions provided by [JSImport] and [JSExport] #dotnet #aspnetcore #wasm #webassembly

Unpopular opinion (apparently): .NET devs who genuinely value OSS, simplicity, and minimal corporate nonsense are a minority in the .NET ecosystem. I say this as someone who’s been around since 2004. I understand the legacy. I lived through it. I even survived it. But at some point… can we move on? Too much modern .NET code still feels like it was designed in 2009, just with newer keywords and a fancier DI container. Endless abstractions, framework worship, ceremony over clarity. More patterns than problems. What honestly makes me sad is this: if you want sane defaults, low-BS development, and tools that don’t assume an enterprise committee per line of code, the most realistic option often seems to be… switching ecosystems entirely. Go. Rust. Pick your flavor of “less nonsense.” Not because .NET can’t do it. But because too many .NET devs won’t let it. The platform evolved. The language evolved. The runtime evolved. Some of the mindset didn’t. And no, adding one more layer, interface, or “enterprise-grade” framework is not progress. This is my last shout-out of the year. Next one will be next year, something more creative, less ranty… probably still inconvenient for someone. 🔥🎅

We are excited to announce our new open source project App Platform! App Platform is a lightweight application framework for state and memory management suitable for Kotlin Multiplatform projects. We use App Platform to share code between Android, iOS and Linux machines for faster development cycles and more maintainable, platform-independent code. The framework is a culmination of solutions we developed, deployed and battle-tested in our own apps over the past 2.5 years. App Platform offers a powerful and efficient foundation for your Kotlin Multiplatform projects and we believe it's useful outside of Amazon, too. We look forward to your feedback and contributions. https://lnkd.in/gaGdKcqJ

Typescript will now be 10x faster. Anders Hejlsberg today announced Project Corsa. Here's a TLDR around it. - Typescript was having performance and scalability issues ( for system-level operations ) due to the underlying JavaScript runtime. - Reached the limit of what could be squeezed out of JavaScript. - Decision was made to port the TypeScript compiler and tools to native code. - "Why not C++? Why not Rust?" : They tested various languages and found out that Go is the most suitable for the kind of workload they deal with. - Compile time for VScode ( the codebase they tested on) was 10 times faster with Go. - All performance benefits came from 2 things: Being native and having concurrency. https://lnkd.in/g4ZWuk_c
