DI, EF Core, and .NET 10 Preview
A varied .NET roundup with DI, EF Core, API rate limiting, async throughput, Blazor, MAUI, OpenTelemetry, and SQL Server tips.
Jasen's top three picks
- 1 Dependency Injection in .NET
Medium
A solid DI refresher, including lifetime pitfalls that still trip up seasoned teams.
- 2 Simple Calculator in C# with Source Code
Medium
A practical look at rate limiting and async throughput—good reminders for keeping APIs healthy.
- 3 Rate Limiting in .NET APIs
Medium
EF Core migration safety is always worth attention before it becomes a deployment surprise.
Editor's note
I pulled together a deliberately mixed issue this time: practical fundamentals, platform updates, and a few architecture-heavy reads. The .NET 10 preview deep dive and the EF Core missing migrations article stand out for teams planning their next upgrade or trying to keep production safe. There’s also solid guidance on rate limiting, async throughput, and JWT auth that should be immediately useful.
