Hey Reader,
First off, Happy New Year! 🎊 I hope you've stepped into 2024 feeling great and ready for all the amazing things this year can bring. I'm genuinely excited to share this journey with you.
Today, I've got a couple of videos that I think you'll find really interesting. We're diving into .NET 8 with a focus on SignalR and Blazor WebAssembly. I've put together a tutorial where we'll start building a simple chat application - it's a great way to see the new updates in action. Definitely worth a look if you're into Blazor WebAssembly.
Also, I've heard your requests and put together a short but sweet tutorial on the ternary operator in C#. It might be a small part of C#, but it's super handy. And yes, the idea of a C# beginner course is still on my mind. I'm starting with these bite-sized tutorials as a teaser of what’s to come.
I'd love to get your thoughts on the beginner C# tutorials. Your feedback always means a lot to me.
Huge thanks to our community, and a special shoutout to my Patrons for your incredible support. You're the backbone of this newsletter and my channel.
Can't wait to see what we'll create together this year. Stay safe, and as always, happy coding! 💻
Take care,
Patrick

Hey friend, I realized something recently: AI was slowing me down. I’d send a prompt… and wait. Even though I already knew what to do next. So I changed one thing. I stopped using AI like a tool and started using it like a team. Multiple chats. Multiple tasks. All running at once. Watch it below 👇 Happy prompting! Take care,Patrick P.S.

Hey friend, Blazor Server or WebAssembly? Lately, I had a call with a student migrating a desktop app… and this question came up immediately. So I made a quick video to break it down: You'll learn: When Blazor Server is the simplest choice When you actually need WebAssembly And when an API becomes necessary Enjoy! Take care,Patrick P.S. Our next live office hours inside the .NET Web Academy start tomorrow. Join here.
Hey friend, Working from home as a .NET developer sounds great. Freedom. No meetings. Full control. But after a while, it gets heavy. You make every decision alone. Architecture. Azure. Refactoring. Deployment. And sometimes you just want someone to say, “Yeah, that’s fine. Ship it.” AI helps. Tutorials help. But real conversations with other developers hit different. In today's video, I talk about why working alone can slow us down and why feedback from other devs matters more than we think....
