WPF Still Going Strong - .NET 134

53m · Adventures in .NET · 20 Sep 10:00

"I thought WPF was dead" is usually one of the first things that Kevin Bost hears when discussing today's topic. WPF is not dead. In fact, WPF is supported by .NET 6 and a plethora of third-party apps, extensions and packages. Kevin has been working with WPF for a long time and has become an expert on the framework. In today's episode we discuss some of the strengths and weaknesses of WPF, competing frameworks, open-source projects and the path forward. If you need to develop desktop apps for Windows, WPF is still the most mature framework out there. Have you worked with WPF? Are you currently developing applications with WPF? Let us know on Twitter at @dotnet_Podcast.

Get Interactive with Jupyter Notebook - .NET 158

Ron Dagdag, lead software engineer at Spacee, joins us to get interactive with Jupyter Notebook. It is an open-source web application that allows you to create and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualizations and narrative text. Microsoft has embraced Jupyter Notebook with the open source .NET Interactive project. The more we discussed Jupyter Notebook the more ways we came up with to use it. For instance Ron uses it for a lot of his demos and you can share it with someone without them having to install anything because it runs in the browser. Do you have any ideas on how to use Jupyter Notebook? If so share it with us on Twitter at@dotnet_Podcast.
