Editor's note
I curated a pretty mixed bag this time, from payments and identity to tooling and language craft. The Stripe guide and the ASP.NET Core Identity 2FA walkthrough stand out for shipping real-world app features, while the Visual Studio and .NET 10 pieces are useful for keeping your day-to-day stack current.
