Bron Thulke - Web DeveloperAvoiding repeated Web.config transformations in Azure Devops pipelines
We’ve just gone live with our new infrastructure on Azure, which (temporarily) will use YARP to proxy all requests in our .NET Core web app to our old .NET Framework app, where they haven’t yet been ported across to the Core app.

Read MoreUsing Multiple Bindings with Azure Functions in Isolated Worker Process Mode
As I’ve just written about in my article about Upgrading Azure Functions to .NET 7, I’ve been working on changing some Azure Functions from .NET 6 using the “in-process” mode, to .NET 7 using the “isolated worker process” mode.
Read MoreUpgrading Azure Functions to .NET 7 Isolated Worker Process
I’ve been working this weekend on changing some Azure Functions from .NET 6 using the “in-process” mode, to .NET 7 using the “isolated worker process” mode. Do I know how to make the most of glorious weather?? I sure do!

Using YARP with multiple domains
I’m currently going through the process of upgrading one of my ASP.NET web applications from .NET Framework (4.8) to .NET 6 (Core, baby!).

Things like databases and authentication have a nasty way of getting in the way.

Read MoreMoving Entity Framework migrations to another project
This happens to me quite often, because of the way I tend to work with new projects: I’ve created a new web application, got it up and running and set up my initial code first migration, start working on the model (maybe another few migrations for new tables etc) and then realise that I want to move the database to a separate “data layer” project AFTER I’ve already started running the migrations.

Setting up SendGrid 7.0.0 in ASP.NET
Today I was starting up a new ASP.NET Web Application using the ASP.NET Identity membership system, for a micro site I’m building, and my first task was to get the email confirmation working for accounts (and subsequently to prevent logging in until email has been confirmed). I decided to try out SendGrid rather than using my own SMTP server, mostly because, well, Microsoft told me I should 😉
