Hey Reader, I've been coding for almost 30 years and getting paid for it for 20. But guess what? I just recently explored Vertical Slice Architecture, and wow... it might just change the way you build .NET apps forever! In my latest YouTube video, I break down three different ways to structure a .NET Web API: ✅ Traditional Layered Approach - Simple, but can get messy fast. I’ll show you real code examples for each approach and explain key concepts like coupling and cohesion - all in a way that’s easy to understand. And the best part? You can download all the source code from the video description!
If you’ve ever felt frustrated with complex architectures or bloated codebases, Vertical Slice Architecture might be the perfect solution. Check it out, and let me know what you think in the comments! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!

Hey Reader, If you're building apps with Blazor, you've probably asked yourself this: 👉 Should I use SSR, Blazor Server, or WebAssembly? It’s a common question - and I get it a lot. So I made a brand-new YouTube video walking you through how to choose the best one for your app. 🎥 Watch it here: If you're building a Blazor app or planning to do so soon, this should help clear up a lot of confusion. Let me know what you think, and feel free to reply if you have any questions. Take care, Patrick...
Hey Reader, You may have seen the recent blog post from Jimmy Bogard (creator of MediatR and AutoMapper) announcing that these libraries are going commercial. And to be clear, I fully support that. Time is money, and supporting your family always comes first. BUT… In most of my projects, I don’t actually use everything MediatR offers. I usually just need a small part of it, the classic "send a request, get a response" pattern. So I thought: why not build a simple version myself? 👉 That’s...
