MicroMediator vs MediatR: real benchmark data across dispatch, memory, throughput, and cold start to help you choose the right tool for your workload.

Streaming is not always faster. Learn when IAsyncEnumerable saves memory, when it costs you, and what early exit looks like at 1,000,000 items.

MicroMediator makes handler lifetime explicit. Learn when to use Singleton, Scoped, or Transient and what the real performance difference looks like.

Explore why C# developers should embrace Node.js especially with Optimizely's SaaS CMS on the horizon. Understand the shift towards agile web development and how mastering Node.js can open up new opportunities in the evolving digital landscape.

Explore the step-by-step guide to setting up Optimizely with dotnet aspire and C# 8.0, tailored for developers seeking to enhance their digital projects. Dive into my comprehensive walkthrough on the Optimizely Aspire GitHub repository.

Now that Optimizely 12 runs on .NET 5 it can be run on a Mac, and with most front enders using Macs, I thought it might be useful to demonstrate the steps on how to get it up and running on a Mac.

Also built on Contentful and Azure Cognitive Search

Contentful doesn't have an option to choose a target for links in a rich text field (yet), so for now I assume that external links should be opened in a new tab. This is achieved with an IContentRenderer.

After sitting the exam, I thought I would document some of the ways I prepared for the exam, and what I found most useful out of the material.

This week I successfully passed my Optimizely (formerly Episerver) Content Cloud certifcation.

Contentful does have some basic search functionality, but it is quite limited and quite difficult to implement (at least in .net). So leveraging Contentful webhooks I decided to index the data into Azure Cognitive Search service.

A simple episerver project with a couple of basic page types to show how an Initializable Module can be used to generate pages that QA and UAT teams can use during their testing/sign off process. I have used Bogus and Waffle to generate realistic content, the Faker classes can be found in the business module along with the module.
