Done with my talk at #NdcCph2026 😁 Time to relax the rest of the day and going to the after party later with live music by The Linebreakers! 🎸 #ndc

Me on the scene. On the slide is a duck-SVG and the path commands for its shape.

Blazor.FileSystem, a core dependency of this library, also had some major changes. It had its primary method for iterating the file system handles of a directory, replaced with a method from Blazor.WebIDL, which can iterate over any type decorated as async_iterable. 🧵(4/5)

Code showing the comparison between the previous way to iterate over the files and directories in a directory and the new way to do the same, while keeping closer to the specification and making it easier not to leak memory.

We also removed the FileSystemAccessOptions type from the library. This type was previously used to customize the path of the helper modules used in the library. I found out that we could achieve the same with importmaps, so I removed it to reduce clutter. 🧵(3/5)

Kristoffer Strube @kstrubeg.bsky.social · 14/04/2026

The options used for opening a file or directory picker have been replaced with new unified types that are much closer to the shape in the specification. These new types utilize union types for the StartIn property so that we don't need to make specialized types. 🧵(2/5)

Comparison between the old and new ways to pass options to the open-file dialog.

Released a fix to Blazor.MediaCaptureStreams today in version 0.4.1. Microphones now offer finer-grained echo-cancellation capabilities, which the library does not yet support. To fix that, we ignore unsupported values until we soon add support for them. #dotnet #blazor github.com/KristofferSt...

I can recommend listening to the latest episode of Hanselminutes. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YO7l... I admire what @captainsafia.com has accomplished in such a short time. And especially her point that confidence can be built from competence resonates a lot with me.

I attended a talk by Bjarne Stroustrup for the first time today. He told all about the usage of Concepts for generics in C++. He also had a small jab at C#: "If dynamic reflection is good enough for C#, then why not for C++?" ... "I think we can do better." I loved that comment!

@james.montemagno.com do you know if there is an easy way to map multiple different MCP endpoints in a single .NET project, each with their individual tools/methods registered? At work we are building MCPs for helping copilot use our SDKs, but would like to expose seperate tools for each SDK. #mcp

Do you enjoy a well-documented API? Then you might be happy to see that ASP․NET Core 10 Preview 1 uses XML Docs for the generated Open API Spec. 😀 @captainsafia.com has made a repo where she shows all the cool bells and whistles of this feature: github.com/captainsafia... #dotnet

I finally found a way to make tests for Blazor JS wrappers in a minimal format. I used to have a lot of boilerplate to control what was evaluated in the browser in each test, but I found out I didn't need that distinguishment, so now it is super simple. 😀 #dotnet #blazor #tests

A test for validating the behavior of a method of the AnalyserNode from the Web Audio API.

Kristoffer Strube @kstrubeg.bsky.social · 28/02/2025

Yeah, It's a crazy commitment to make from the ASP.NET team (in a good way). I've already worked with getting the 3 most popular attestation formats to work in my own library, so I know the difficulty. I hope that they reach out to some of the more popular library authors to help implement this.

That is so cool! Really looking forward to see the faces of the entire aspnetcore teams in those. I primarily make suggestions for aspnetcore so also super cool to get more insights into that team's processes og deciding factors.

Another cool detail is that you can pick which versions of Roslyn and Razor it uses even with daily previews if you want to check whether a bug has been fixed in the newest version of those. 😀 So nice that it is so easily available.

Kristoffer Strube @kstrubeg.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

A cool detail (and why I find it especially awesome) is that it uses my Blazor WebWorkers library to run the compiler for the programs and pages on a background thread in your browser when you use the tool. 🤓

I found a cool project I had not seen before: DotNetInternals by @janjones.bsky.social An online tool for seeing the compiled result of C# programs, Razor components, and CSHTML files. #dotnet #Blazor Project: github.com/jjonescz/Dot... Demo: lab.razor.fyi

A simple program in C# that writes "Hello." to the console. Beside it the IL code generated by the compiler for that program.

Cool! A tip: I have very good experience with hosting demos of projects like this on GitHub Pages for my own projects. It makes it much easier for potential users to see how it will work and different use cases. Here is one of my similar projects where I do this: github.com/KristofferSt...
