Advanced Feature in C#: Extension Methods
In C#, it’s possible to add new behavior to a class or a struct without modifying the original source. This is achieved using a feature called extension methods. Extension methods allow you to extend existing types (classes, interfaces, or structs) as if they were part of the type itself, without actually modifying the type’s source…
The Hidden Power of C#: Lazy Iteration with the Yield Keyword
Introduction In C#, writing performance-oriented code is often a critical goal. When working with large data sets, memory usage and performance become essential considerations. The yield keyword is a hidden gem in C#, offering developers a way to improve performance, especially when iterating over large collections. In this article, we’ll explore how the yield keyword…
Customizing Swagger for .NET 7 and Beyond: Taking Your REST API Documentation to the Next Level
With the evolution of REST APIs, developers have increasingly turned to various tools to better document and present their APIs. One of the most popular tools is Swagger, also known as the OpenAPI Specification (OAS). Swagger provides a standard set of rules for documenting APIs, defining endpoints, data models, sample requests and responses, and error…
Understanding the Use of Interfaces in C#
Introduction C# is a modern programming language based on the object-oriented programming (OOP) paradigm. One of the powerful tools it provides is the “interface” structure. Interfaces can be thought of as a contract that defines how a class should behave and enforces that behavior. In C#, if a class or a struct implements an interface,…
A Guide to Onion Architecture in C#
Introduction Onion Architecture was introduced by Jeffrey Palermo in 2008. This architecture is designed to increase sustainability, testability, and flexibility in software development. Unlike traditional layered architectures, Onion Architecture focuses on the core business logic and controls the direction of dependencies outward. In this article, we will explore how to implement Onion Architecture using C#.…
