Dependency Injection, AI, and EF Core
A varied .NET roundup covering DI containers, multitenancy, AI app integration, EF Core migrations, HTTP debugging, and typed results.
Jasen's top three picks
- 1 Why I Replaced Microsoft’s DI Container — And Never Looked Back
Medium
A candid take on replacing the built-in container with DryIoC—always worth reading when DI choices start affecting real-world complexity.
- 2 Building Multitenant Web Apps in .NET with CShells
Medium
Container-isolated multitenancy is a useful mental model if you’ve been leaning too hard on runtime switches.
- 3 CurlDelegating Handler in .NET
Medium
Logging HttpClient as curl is one of those tiny tricks that saves a lot of head-scratching in production.
Editor's note
I put together a pretty mixed issue today: infrastructure, data, HTTP troubleshooting, and a few AI pieces. The DryIoC write-up is a sharp look at where the built-in container falls short, and the EF Core migrations article is the kind of production guidance teams can use right away.
