Multi-Tenancy, SignalR, Agents, and MAUI
This issue covers SaaS tenancy design, JWT auth in serverless RAG, the outbox pattern, Azure Pipelines bundling, MAUI setup, and SignalR apps.

Editor's note
I kept this one intentionally mixed, which is usually where the best practical reading shows up. The multi-tenancy piece is a strong reminder that tenant boundaries are an application design concern, not just a database choice, and the outbox article is a useful reliability refresher for distributed systems. I also liked the Azure Pipelines esbuild write-up because it focuses on a very real maintenance and packaging problem teams run into.
