🤖 Can GitHub Copilot really build .NET & Blazor apps?
|
Hey Reader, Last week, I tested GPT-5 Agent Mode on .NET and Blazor apps, and the results were surprising. This week, I went a step further. I used GitHub Copilot inside Visual Studio and asked it to create real .NET and Blazor projects for me. Here’s what happened:
Were there errors? Yes. Strange commands, failed builds, and confusing reloads all showed up. But in the end, we got working applications and some important lessons on why knowing your foundations is still crucial when using AI tools. 👉 Watch the full experiment here: I am also working on a new .NET and AI course. In it, I’ll show you how to:

I would love to hear from you: Would you trust Copilot or GPT-5 to build your apps, or do you think it is still too risky?

Hey Reader, I just published a new video where I put GPT-5’s Agent Mode to the test. 🚀 Instead of asking it for something simple, I went all in: A .NET 9 console app calculator A Web API with endpoints and docs A Blazor Server app with extra counter buttons And even a Blazor app that calls a public weather API 🎥 Watch it now: In the video, I didn’t just type “make me an app” and hope for the best. I gave GPT-5 very specific prompts, like: “Please create a .NET 9 console application that works...
Hey Reader, I’m back! 🎉 I’ve been on parental leave for the past 2 months, enjoying time with the family. Now I’m diving back into videos and here’s the first one! 🎥 Watch it now: Here’s the TL;DR if you can’t click right now: AI can already write code, fix bugs, and explain complex concepts. So… are we doomed? No. AI isn’t replacing developers anytime soon. But: Developers who use AI will replace those who don’t. The best devs are using GPT to: Skip repetitive work Prototype faster Learn...
Hey Reader, After 15 years of building web apps, I just recently discovered Vertical Slice Architecture. I know. I’m late to the party. But wow, this approach really changed how I think about structuring Blazor projects. So I decided to show you a simple, real-world example of how to use Vertical Slice Architecture in a Blazor Server app. 🎥 Watch the full tutorial now: In this new tutorial, you'll learn: ✅ How to structure your app with feature folders ✅ How to avoid overcomplicating things...
