Roundup #26: C# 8, Human Performance, Shared Framework, Migration Poll

Here are the things that caught my eye this week.  I’d love to hear what you found most interesting this week.  Let me know in the comments or on Twitter.   Building C# 8.0 The next major version of C# is C# 8.0.

Roundup #24: JSON, .NET Core 3, Framework Reference, Orleans Dashboard

Here are the things that caught my eye this week.  I’d love to hear what you found most interesting this week.  Let me know in the comments or on Twitter.   The future of JSON in .NET Core 3.0 JSON has become an essential part of virtually all modern .NET applications and in many cases even surpassed the usage of XML. However, .NET hasn’t had a (great) built-in way to deal with JSON. Instead we’ve relied on Json.NET which continues to serve the .NET ecosystem well. Moving forward, we plan on making some changes to our JSON support.
