Dependency Injection, AI, and EF Core
This issue covers DI container choices, AI integration in ASP.NET Core, EF Core migrations in production, multitenant patterns, and typed results.
Jasen's top three picks
- 1 Why I Replaced Microsoft’s DI Container — And Never Looked Back
Medium
A sharp take on when the built-in container stops being enough in real systems.
- 2 Building Multitenant Web Apps in .NET with CShells
Medium
A useful multitenancy angle: isolate with containers instead of scattering conditionals.
- 3 CurlDelegating Handler in .NET
Medium
Good production advice here, especially for EF Core migrations and large-data writes.
Editor's note
I curated a pretty varied mix today, from container swaps and DI fundamentals to AI, multitenancy, and database deployment safety. The DryIoC piece and the EF Core migrations article stood out to me because they tackle the kind of real-world tradeoffs teams actually hit in production. I also like the typed results and deadlocks posts for being practical rather than theoretical.
