MVC modernization, architecture and Redis
A mixed .NET roundup covering UI modernization, Clean Architecture, JWT and delegates, plus Redis, Azure Functions, Orleans, and tooling changes.
Jasen's top three picks
- 1 Modernize ASP.NET MVC Razor UI with AWS Transform
news.google.com
AWS Transform is the kind of migration aid teams with legacy MVC apps should evaluate early.
- 2 No Console.WriteLine for fun

Two Clean Architecture pieces back-to-back make the pattern’s tradeoffs and core layers easy to compare.
- 3 Clean Architecture in .NET: Building the Domain & Application Layers

JWT, delegates, and LINQ are solid fundamentals picks, especially for newer developers.
Editor's note
I pulled a familiar but varied stack this time: modernization, architecture, runtime fundamentals, and a few platform updates. The AWS Transform piece is interesting for teams carrying older ASP.NET MVC UIs forward, while the IntelliCode deprecation is a small but important reminder that tooling assumptions age quickly. I also liked the Redis guide and the Orleans overview because both are practical for developers building scalable systems.
