Editor's note
I pulled together a pretty broad mix this time, from a small C# 13 language fix that scratches a long-standing itch to a Blazor TDD talk with real testing tradeoffs. The EF Core refactoring and ASP.NET Core security pieces are especially useful if you’re keeping a production app tidy and hardened. A few AI-adjacent and architecture posts round out the issue without forcing a theme.

In this issue, we've assembled articles that are as polished and powerful as a classic Mustang, ready to help you fine-tune your .NET skills. So buckle up and let’s hit the road to innovation together—your next big project might just be a few scrolls away!
