In the earlier blog post, I showed how to configure a Curity Identity Server container in a .NET Aspire solution. In this blog post, I'll continue refactoring the Curity configuration to be even more straightforward and reusable. I'll introduce you to the .NET Aspire concept called

I started to use .NET Aspire when the first preview was launched. I wrote a blog post about my first impressions at the end of 2023. Now, it's good to revisit this and update the lessons learned story. I held a presentation titled "Shift to .NET Aspire

This post explains how to set up .NET Aspire solution which runs Curity Identity Server container and shows the power of .NET Aspire container orchestration. Typically, a local development environment is configured to use Identity Server from the Cloud Dev or Test environment. Practically, this also means that you can&

This is a story about how the .NET Aspire influenced to my preferred technology stack when building native cloud applications to Azure Cloud. I have been working with Azure Cloud for almost 10 years, focusing on PaaS services. This story focuses on developing distributed applications in the Azure PaaS platform.

We started to build a service totality for a specific domain area with a small team a while ago. The foundation of the solution was .NET Aspire and Azure Container Apps Environment. We saw the potential of this technology combination already soon. This then raised questions about how to scale

.NET Aspire was published a couple of weeks ago and we started to utilize it immediately in one new project. We knew that there would be some hiccups because .NET Aspire is still in preview. The official release is planned for the first half of 2024. 💡Experience in this article

I gathered to this blog post a list of external libraries that I usually add to a greenfield .NET API project. Most of these libraries can be used also in other project types as well. These libraries streamline the developer's work and make code more maintainable and easier

I recently worked in a project where event-driven architecture was used to distribute different events to multiple consumers. During the project, we spend some time thinking about how to document events easily and how to create a centralized repository for event schemas. I share some thoughts about event catalog in

I recently worked with the .NET 6 application and for cost-efficiency reasons, I decided to deploy the application to a Linux-based App Service. Everything didn't happen without problems so this blog post describes what you should know when deploying a .NET 6 application to Linux Linux-based app Service

This blog post shows how I uploaded FIT and GPX exercise files to Strava via a custom web application. My first plan was to parse FIT files and then upload exercise data to the Strava (create activity API). I implemented the first application version of that using the FastFitParser (C#

A few years ago I bought a Garmin wrist device. Before that, I have used Suunto devices for many years. When I made the device switch all my exercise data stayed with the Suunto services (Movescount and SportsTracker). Currently, I'm synchronizing all exercise data of course to the

A few months ago I got a task to create a simple participant registration system (personal project). People are registering for the running event via this system. This blog post contains information on how this system was built. I'm interested in investigating new technologies so I decided to

Hello World I decided to start a work-related blog to share knowledge, solutions, and experiences about different kinds of technologies. I mostly work with Azure and MS technology in general so the content of this blog will be concentrated on cloud and MS tech. I will use this site as
