I am a Microsoft MVP and a lead/senior software engineer with over a decade of professional experience. I primarily specialize in .NET and Microsoft stack. I am enthusiastic about creating well-crafted software that fully meets business needs. Throughout my career, I have successfully developed software of various types and various levels of complexity in multiple industries. This includes a passenger information management system for a railway, distributed smart clusters of IoT devices, e-commerce systems, financial transaction processing systems, and more. I have also successfully led and mentored teams of software developers. I enjoy sharing my knowledge with the community. This motivates me to mentor aspiring developers and create educational content, which includes blog posts, technical books, and online courses. My books include "SignalR on .NET 6 - the complete guide", "The battle hardened developer", and "The easiest way to learn design patterns".

Advanced SignalR configuration: fine-tuning the server-side hub and all supported client types

We have already covered all the fundamental ways of using SignalR messages. We have learned how to set up clients of all supported types, how to send messages to specific clients and how to use data streams, both client-to-server and server-to-client. Now, we will be moving on to more advanced SignalR concepts. And in this […]

Sending messages to individual SignalR clients or groups of clients

SignalR hub can broadcast a message to all connected clients. But this is far from being the only way you can use SignalR. The hub allows you to send messages to individual clients. You can also group clients together and send messages to specific groups of clients. And this is what we will talk about

Single Sign-on user authentication on Blazor WebAssembly SignalR client

SignalR is an inbuilt ASP.NET Core library that makes it easy to create interactive real-time applications. It enables fast two-way messaging between the client and the server. Under the hood, it uses some complex logic to enable all of this. But its external APIs hide all this complexity, so using SignalR in your code is

Applying SOLID principles to JavaScript – a step-by-step refactoring guide

Many design patterns were developed with SOLID principles in mind. Therefore it will be hard to learn design patterns unless you know SOLID principles. But SOLID principles aren’t merely a tool to help you learn design patterns. Every software developer who uses object-oriented programming languages needs to be familiar with SOLID principles and know how

SignalR vs gRPC on ASP.NET Core – which one to choose

My book, SignalR on .NET 6 – the complete guide, is out now! Also available in print. A while ago, when ASP.NET Core didn’t even exist, Microsoft has created a library for .NET Framework-based ASP.NET that enabled a two-way communication between the clients and a server in real time. This library was called SignalR. The
