I find myself bouncing back and forth between Visual Studio and Copilot. I wish I didn't have to leave Visual Studio to get the conversational aspect of Copilot.

I refactored the sample application by adding a shared RCL, refactored the Server sample app and added a WASM sample app. I also simplified the documentation. buff.ly/ZGQFwUX

I would definitely consider adding this to the Community Toolkit but I'm not sure how much effort that involves?

Doh! I forgot to change the visibility on the repo. You should be able to see it now. Thanks for pointing that out!

The Markdown editor has buttons and keyboard short cuts. So far, I'm really pleased with the results.

The dialogue is so Shakespearean. The character development is amazing. My favorite parts of the series are Al's interactions with Wu.

How much time did it save me, I can't say for sure, but it felt less lonely trying to figure out this insidious bug. I wish the initial error message was less misleading, but I started to see some real value using agentic AI. I hope my tale of woe helps someone else updating AZ functions to .NET8

I finally figured this out by pair debugging with CoPilot. I found it super useful to have it review the error messages I was seeing in the logs as well as bits of code and configuration. It took a couple hours of trial and error until I added the right prompt and had it review Program.cs.

That line has been there for almost 8 years. It turns out that AZ functions V4 dotnet-isolated implemented with .NET8 started to honor the default for "optional" which is false.

The code should look like this:
.AddJsonFile("local.settings.json", optional: true, reloadOnChange: false);

"Error building configuration in an external startup class". This really confused me as I removed the Startup.cs file ages ago. The app started and found all of my functions on my device machine. Why was the app failing to start on Azure?

My Progam.cs had: .AddJsonFile("local.settings.json")

Cheers Des! I'm having a glass of 2107 Tempranillo I made with my wine group.

Angry Beavers. Great voice acting. Chaotic and surreal. Story lines pulling from 60's and 70's memes. Fantastic music. What's not to love?

When I was a DJ at WKDU in Philadelphia, I spun the hell out of that record. Requiem is one of my all time favorite songs.

Maybe a 10 inch rpi monitor? a.co/d/eFWkdWN

I just ordered one of these for traveling. There are cheaper 1080p versions in the $60 to $80 dollar range. Might be worth considering.
