EF Core, MAUI Copilot, API Performance
Covers EF Core 11 and PostgreSQL benchmarking, MAUI Copilot tooling, BFF security, DNS failover testing, and snapshot test techniques.
Jasen's top three picks
- 1 Testing .NET 11 DNS APIs Under Real Failover Conditions
c-sharpcorner.com
Useful if you care about service discovery beyond toy examples; failover timing and cache behavior are where production surprises usually hide.
- 2 .NET MAUI Community Standup: Inspect, Record, Create: .NET MAUI Meets GitHub Copilot Canvas 🤝

The tooling story here is the real draw: inspection, recording, and Copilot assistance in one MAUI workflow is worth watching.
- 3 Day 17 : Building While Learning — My MudBlazor Journey
medium.com
More of a learning journal than a deep dive, but practical for developers getting comfortable with MudBlazor patterns.
Editor's note
I kept this issue deliberately mixed, which is how I like the daily read to land. The EF Core 11 query translation piece stands out because it stays grounded in SQL inspection and execution plans, while the MAUI standup is interesting for how inspection, recording, and Copilot Canvas start to converge. I also liked the DNS failover testing article for treating reliability as something you measure under stress instead of assuming from happy-path demos.
