Overview An Object-Relational Mapper (ORM) is frequently used by developers to link their code to the database while working with.NET applications. Entity Framework (EF) is the most widely used ORM in the.NET ecosystem. Since EF has changed over time, there are currently two primary versions: Entity Framework Core (EF Core) and Entity Framework 6 (EF6)….
Dependency injection (DI) plays a key role in managing object lifetimes and dependencies in contemporary.NET applications, particularly in ASP.NET Core and background services. Singleton and transient services are simple to comprehend, but scoped services—particularly those that are not part of the request pipeline—become more complex. This is where IServiceScopeFactory becomes crucial. This article breaks down….

HTTP status codes are essential signals delivered from a server to a client (such a browser or mobile app) to indicate the result of a request in the context of web development and API integration. Status codes facilitate effective communication between developers and systems, regardless of whether a request was successful, unsuccessful due to an…
One essential software testing method is static testing, which looks at a program and its documentation without running the code. Static testing is different from dynamic testing, which involves running the software to find errors. Static testing, on the other hand, uses reviews and analysis to find defects early on. Static testing is included in…
Fluent Hybernate: What Is It? The well-known Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) framework NHibernate, which is frequently utilized in enterprise applications for database interfaces, is extended by Fluent NHibernate. Developers may use a fluent API to generate mappings using Fluent NHibernate, doing away with the requirement for laborious XML setup files. Developers can deal with database tables…
The.NET Framework and.NET Core/5+ are executed by the Common Language Runtime (CLR). Our.NET programs are run in this virtual machine. It builds, maintains, and safeguards your code at runtime; think of it as its heart and guardian. Consider it the core of.NET, where our C#, VB.NET, or F# code is intelligently handled and made to…
The testing of locally created webhooks, APIs, or third-party integrations that need a publicly accessible URL is a common problem that developers have while creating contemporary web applications. This issue is simply resolved by Ngrok, which instantaneously exposes your local server to the internet by building a secure tunnel to it. This post will explain…
Picture this, A developer with 7 years of experience consistently writes efficient, elegant, and maintainable code. Another developer with 15 years of experience has been repeating the same patterns, but never truly leveling up. Here’s the million-dollar question, Is it time served that defines a great developer? Or is it mindset, curiosity, and craftsmanship that…
The evolution of .NET has been a journey of innovation, unification, and modernization. With the introduction of the Unified .NET Framework (commonly referred to as just .NET), Microsoft has streamlined its development ecosystem, combining the best features of .NET Framework and .NET Core into a single, unified platform. This article will explain what the unified…
