This week we’ve noticed an increase in Blazor related articles, which is expected in our opinion. Blazor WASM has still a long way to go but it’s gaining popularity by the day. Other than that there are plenty of other quality articles to pick from this week.
If you have a blog that you follow regularly and you think shares good content each week, make sure to recommend them to us, and we’ll include them in one of our future issues.
Also, there are just three more days left to grab our “Ultimate ASP.NET Core Web API” program at a 30% discount (.NET 5 update).
