Roundup #64: Migrate from JSON.NET to System.Text.Json, Endpoint Debugging, ToQueryString, CreateDbCommand

Here are the things that caught my eye recently in .NET.  I’d love to hear what you found most interesting this week.  Let me know in the comments or on Twitter. How to migrate from Newtonsoft.Json to System.Text.Json This article shows how to migrate from Newtonsoft.Json to System.Text.Json. System.Text.Json focuses primarily on performance, security, and standards compliance. It has some key differences in default behavior and doesn’t aim to have feature parity with Newtonsoft.Json. For some scenarios, System.Text.Json has no built-in functionality, but there are recommended workarounds. For other scenarios, workarounds are impractical. If your application depends on a missing feature, consider filing an issue to find out if… Read More »Roundup #64: Migrate from JSON.NET to System.Text.Json, Endpoint Debugging, ToQueryString, CreateDbCommand

Roundup #60: gRPC vs HTTP APIs, .NET Perception, Rider, WebWindow

Here are the things that caught my eye recently in .NET.  I’d love to hear what you found most interesting this week.  Let me know in the comments or on Twitter. gRPC vs HTTP APIs ASP.NET Core now enables developers to build gRPC services. gRPC is an opinionated contract-first remote procedure call framework, with a focus on performance and developer productivity. gRPC integrates with ASP.NET Core 3.0, so you can use your existing ASP.NET Core logging, configuration, authentication patterns to build new gRPC services. Link: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/aspnet/grpc-vs-http-apis/ Perception of .NET I thought this thread was fascinating. Very interesting to read some of the… Read More »Roundup #60: gRPC vs HTTP APIs, .NET Perception, Rider, WebWindow

Orleans Health Checks using ASP.NET Core

One of the nicest things with the introduction of the Generic Host in Orleans v3.0 is that it allows you to run Orleans side by side with ASP.NET Core. One of the main benefits that I could think of is creating Orleans health checks using ASP.NET Core Health Checks. Co-Hosting Since Orleans 3.0, there is now support for the GenericHost via extensions on IHostBuilder, this allows you to run multiple services within the same process all sharing things such as logging, services, configuration, etc. In a recent blog post, I covered how you can co-host Orleans and ASP.NET Core. This… Read More »Orleans Health Checks using ASP.NET Core
