At its Build 2021 event, Microsoft has announced a plethora of new features coming to its cloud platform and associated services. It has also revealed enhancements to development platforms such as .NET.
.NET 6 Preview 4 is now live and contains lots of improvements on the development side of things. Developers utilizing a single codebase across multiple target platforms can make use of the .NET Multi-platform App UI (.NET MAUI) in Visual Studio. Developers building desktop web UIs can take advantage of ASP.NET Blazor hybrid apps. Additionally, support for Apple Silicon and Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) on ARM64 has been added. Smaller container images that have less of a memory footprint and web APIs can also be utilized to build smaller and faster microservices. As usual, the new release contains performance enhancements as well.
