Learn how to query your application's data using natural language by building an ASP.NET MCP server.

Agentic AI changes the trade-off between using an existing component library and building your own. This post explores how AI agents can help teams create, maintain, and evolve a custom Angular component library without taking on the full cost.

Prevent integration surprises in production by using Aspire to run local dependencies in a consistent, production-like setup, with Azure Blob Storage and Azurite as a practical example.

The power of giving an AI agent access to OpenTelemetry data through Aspire MCP is simple: it gives the agent better input to analyze. Instead of reasoning only from source code, the agent can inspect the actual behavior of the running system. That makes its insights more reliable, resulting in more relevant and correct suggestions.

You don’t need a complex setup or endless prompt tricks to get value from AI in software development. I've experienced that a few practices like an AGENTS.md file, Agent Skills, and specifications can dramatically improve the speed, quality, and consistency of agents.

Using Damien Bowden's secure ASP.NET Core and Angular BFF template as a starting point, this post shows how to integrate Aspire to improve local development and prepare the application for containerized deployment.

In this post we'll create a custom Playwright matcher to validate the shape of the response body using the zod library. This way, we make sure that the contract between the front-end application and the API is valid.

Leverage the power of Minimal APIs to treat your endpoint as the application layer. This has several benefits, but I find the biggest one being the simplicity of it.

I find that Playwright offers a great testing experience, and the new UI mode makes it even better. In this blog post, we'll take a look at the UI mode and see how it improves the overall experience.

A summary of why and how you should refactor your HTTP clients to the typed HTTP client version in .NET.

Luckily there's a function called `forwardRef` to solve a circular dependency between two Angular Standalone Components. A use case for this is a recursive component that renders its parent component.

Concurrency in recurrent jobs can cause race condition issues. However, we can prevent such problems by queuing new jobs when the same job is still pending. This approach helps to manage the job execution and avoids issues that may arise when multiple instances of the same job are active at the same time. In this post we'll see how we can ensure that only one instance of the job is running at any given time, thus preventing conflicts and ensuring a reliable job execution.

Let's take a look at how shifting the auth responsibility from a front-end application to a Backend For Frontend (BFF) affects our Angular applications.

You probably already know the built-in retry mechanism for locators and matchers, but are you already familiar with the retry and polling APIs? Let's take a look at the different retry APIs that Playwright has to offer, and when to use them.

To improve the security of our Single Page Applications, let's ditch the access tokens in the browser and make the Backend for Frontend (BFF) responsible for the authentication process using the Authorization Code flow with PKCE. To achieve this, we'll use the Duende.BFF NuGet package and let it communicate with Auth0.

To save us some time in the process to verify that a file is correct, let's automate the actions to download a file and add it to the Playwright test report for easy access.

Entity Framework 8 brings a new feature allowing us to execute and return unmapped types from SQL select statements. In this blog post we'll take a quick look at how we can accomplish this, and why this is an important tool to have in your toolkit.

At some point in time you'll want to run a subset of your tests. Organizing your tests with Playwright test tags helps you to do this in a clean way. Using tags allows you to target specific tests in specific scenarios, and can help to scale your pipeline(s).

Playwright (v1.31) introduces a new feature to make the authentication process easier. This approach unifies the authentication flow with the rest of the test cases, and more importantly makes it possible to test with different user roles.

Standalone components give you a better foundation to build on, as your Angular component becomes less affected by its internals. It doesn't matter if the component has its own template, or if it's using child components. This makes your test cases less brittle than before with Angular Modules. To interact with the component we're still using the Angular Testing Library because it provides useful utilities to interact and query the component.

Using the Azure DevOps API to automatically add reviewers to an Azure DevOp Pull Request from within the CI pipeline.

Using zod's coerse method to easily access route and query parameters in Angular.

Let's migrate an Angular application using @NgModules to the standalone API. For this task, we use the automatic schematic that's available in Angular v15.2.0-next.2. We also take a look at the manual steps that are required to fully migrate the application to use the new functional APIs.

Take advantage of soft assertions in Playwright to improve your test experience and reduce the amount of time spent on fixing bugs. Soft assertions allow that multiple assertions can fail in a single test, rather than stopping the test execution after the first failure.

How to register the OpenTelemetry web packages to automatically create traces and send them to a backend. The result is a helpful dashboard containing insights about the Angular application.

Using DbFunctions is a method to use database-specific functions in your Entity Framework queries. They allow you to take advantage of features that are specific to a particular database provider, such as SQL Server and use them in your Entity Framework queries in a provider-agnostic way. As an example, let's use the SOUNDEX SQL function.

In most cases, I write tests for Angular components without using Test Harnesses, but finding the correct element(s) is not always straightforward. Here, Test Harnesses play a part in easily finding and interacting with those components that can't be queried. Using Test Harnesses is also a good practice into keeping your tests readable and resilient to changes.

Intercepting HTTP requests is a useful feature, let's take a look at how you can intercept an HTTP request with Playwright and discuss some of the possibilities.

A simple trick to increase your productivity and testing experience.

If you're using Angular, there's a good chance that you're using a component-based architecture. We can use this architecture to our advantage. Instead of creating one big print stylesheet with some selectors, which becomes unmanageable complex when you have to support multiple printable pages. We can move some of the layout back to the components.

The createAction creator function opened opportunities in the NgRx world. With it came two other creator functions, createReducer and createEffect. Let's take a look at what's so special about it and why it's important.

In this article, we'll iterate over an implementation to introduce multiple independent instances of a NgRx store slice. In an application, these instances can be represented by a tab-like interface. To come to a solution we'll use the Angular Router, NgRx Effects, and NgRx Router Store. We'll also see meta-reducers, helper reducer functions, and smart and dumb components.

A snippet on how to invoke multiple service calls within a single NgRx Effect.

By using a Cypress task it's possible to run code JavaScript code in Node.js. We can leverage this API to reseed a database with data we're in control of. Having control over the data allows us to write specific and isolated scenarios to run tests against.

The Angular Testing Library provides utility functions to interact with Angular components, in the same way as a user would. This brings more maintainability to our tests, gives us more confidence that our component does what it's supposed to do, and it improves the accessibility which is better for our users. All these benefits, plus you'll see that it's fun to write tests in this way.

A lot of Angular modules need to be imported with a static forRoot() function, via this function it allows us to configure the module. But sometimes we make the mistake to use the forRoot function more than once throughout an application. We might not notice it when this happens but often it is the cause of unexpected behavior, which is sadly hard to debug. In this post, we'll look into a solution.

Imagine having a form that you want to use at multiple places inside your application. The form will have the same layout but the validation will be different. In our case, this form is used in a procedure and in each step of the procedure the form gets more restrictive. Can you keep it DRY? We had this problem and came up with the following solution.

I discovered XState a year ago, I already had encountered state machines and statecharts before but I missed the point. Now a year further, I'm here to tell you that these are worth looking into and that XState is a the library to get you started. For me, the most important points to use XState or statecharts would be that it's declarative and explicit, it's hard to create invalid state. The nice extra's that you get with it, is the tooling around it and the portability across frameworks.

At first when I heard of css variables, I was a bit skeptical. Why would anyone use it if there are extension languages as scss, sass, less and stylus. After several years, I stated to notice more and more peoples using it, writing about it and talking about it. I was missing out on something... After a while of using it, I was hooked.
