Debugging Dapr applications locally means inspecting multiple processes, log outputs and component files. The new free, open-source Diagrid Dev Dashboard gives you a live view of everything Dapr on your local machine. It's a single binary with zero setup. Try it now: www.diagrid.io/dev-dashboard

The realities are that agent and workflow systems will not be able to be adopted in most organizations without validation and checks. Legal requirements and "proof of work done" will be the gatekeepers. Come and see how Dapr and Diagrid are solving the security problems facing agentic development.

Super excited to see the latest edition to the Dapr University courses, this time for .NET + Dapr + Aspire. Fan-out multiple activities in parallel, aggregate etc with one `aspire run`. If you write .NET, block off an hour this week and walk through it. Link below would love to hear what you build👇

Dapr Agents showing probably the most extensive capabilities of any AI Agentic framework with the least amount of code, all due to the features of Dapr runtime. Try this out in 5 mins. I am amazed by this!

Seeing Dapr emerge into the Trial phase in the latest Thoughtworks tech radar is tremendous validation of its adoption. The focus on cross cutting concerns including security, retry policies and observability is interesting, as this is a strong ask among Dapr users to enforce compliance.
