+# DotNext 2024 Conference: A Speaker’s Impressions
+
+![banner](banner.png)
+
+Last week, I had the chance of being a speaker at **DotNext 2024** in Moscow. [JUG Ru Group](https://jugru.org/en/) is arranging the DotNext Conferences since [2014](https://dotnext.ru/archive/). It's a specific conference for .NET developers held at the [MonArch Moscow Hotel](https://www.moscowmonarch.com/) on 10, 11 September 2024. This event brought together over **600 developers on-site, 200 developers online**, with around **35 speakers** delivering more than **30 talks**, making it one of the largest gatherings of the .NET community in Russia. 
+
+![Atmosphere-1](general-1.png)
+
+---
+
+
+
+## Key Highlights & Popular Sessions
+
+One of the standout aspects of the conference was its strong technical focus, particularly on deep-dive .NET topics. Talks covered subjects like **low-level optimizations**, architecture, performance, and platform internals. 
+
+The conference started with Sergei Benzenko's talk "What's New in .NET 9". There are important topics like ".NET Aspire in Action", "AI-Driven Software Development", "DDD and Strategic Design" and "OAuth 2.0 User-Managed Access in ASP.NET Core with Keycloak". 
+
+![DotNext 2024 Speakers](speakers.png)
+
+There were two international speakers: me and Halil Ibrahim Kalkan from ABP Core Team.  Halil's topic was **Implementing Domain-Driven Design as a Pragmatic Developer**. In his session, he gave practical real world examples of bad and best practices of DDD development. 
+
+![halil-talk](halil-talk.jpg)
+
+

+
+
+
+## My Talk
+
+My presentation topic was **Building Multi-Tenant ASP.NET Core Applications** was part of this technical deep dive, and I was thrilled to see so much interest in scalable multi-tenant solutions.  I generally talked about meta data in SaaS development and explained how to identify the active tenant, how to isolate the data in the same database, how to set `TenantId` automatically for new entities, how to select DB connection for the active tenant, how to change the active tenant when needed, how to disable multi-tenancy temporarily, how to handle database migrations and lastly feature system. These features are major multi-tenancy features, and you'll learn how they are implemented in an open-source web app framework.

+# ASP.NET Core Blazor 9.0 New Features Summary 🆕
+
+In this article, I'll highlight .NET 9's Blazor updates and important features for ASP.NET Core 9.0. These features are based on the latest .NET 9 Preview 7. 
+
+![Cover](cover.png)
+
+## .NET MAUI Blazor Hybrid App and Web App solution template
+
+There's a new solution template to create .**NET MAUI native** and **Blazor web client** apps. This new template allows to choose a Blazor interactive render mode, it uses a shared Razor class library to maintain the UI's Razor components.
+
+For more info:
+
+* [learn.microsoft.com > maui blazor web app tutorial](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/hybrid/tutorials/maui-blazor-web-app?view=aspnetcore-9.0)
+* [reddit.com/r/Blazor/comments/1dabyzk/net_8_blazor_hybrid_maui_app_web_hosting/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Blazor/comments/1dabyzk/net_8_blazor_hybrid_maui_app_web_hosting/)
+
+
+
+## A new middleware: `MapStaticAssets` 
+
+This new middleware optimizes the delivery of static assets in any ASP.NET Core app, also for Blazor. Basically it compresses assets via [Gzip](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1952), [fingerprints](https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Glossary/Fingerprinting) for all assets at build time with a Base64 and removes caches when Visual Studio Hot Reload (development time) is in action.
+
+For more info:
+
+* [learn.microsoft.com > optimizing static web assets](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/release-notes/aspnetcore-9.0?view=aspnetcore-8.0#optimizing-static-web-asset-delivery)
+* [learn.microsoft.com > fundamentals of static files](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/fundamentals/static-files?view=aspnetcore-9.0#static-asset-middleware)
+
+
+
+##  Simplifying the process of querying component states at runtime
+
+1. Finding the component's current execution location: This can be especially helpful for component performance optimization and debugging. 
+2. Verifying whether the component is operating in a dynamic environment by checking: This can be useful for parts whose actions vary according to how their surroundings interact.
+3. Obtaining the render mode allocated to the component: Comprehending the render mode can aid in enhancing the rendering procedure and augmenting the component's general efficiency.
+
+For more info:
+
+* [learn.microsoft.com > detect rendering location interactivity & render mode runtime](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/components/render-modes?view=aspnetcore-9.0#detect-rendering-location-interactivity-and-assigned-render-mode-at-runtime)
+
+
+
+## Detecting component's location, interactivity support and render mode
+
+The `ComponentBase.RendererInfo` and `ComponentBase.AssignedRenderMode`  now allows to detect the following actions:
+
+* `RendererInfo.Name` returns the location where the component is executing
+* `RendererInfo.IsInteractive` indicates if the component supports interactivity at the time of rendering. 
+* `ComponentBase.AssignedRenderMode` exposes the component's assigned render mode
+
+
+
+## Better server-side reconnection 
+
+* When the previous app is disconnected and the user navigates to this app, or browser put this app in sleep mode, Blazor runs reconnection mechanism.
+
+* When reconnection is not successful because your server killed connection, it automatically makes a full page refresh.
+
+* With the new below config, you can adjust your reconnection retry time:
+
+  * ```csharp
+    Blazor.start({
+      circuit: {
+        reconnectionOptions: {
+          retryIntervalMilliseconds: (previousAttempts, maxRetries) => 
+            previousAttempts >= maxRetries ? null : previousAttempts * 1000
+        },
+      },
+    });
+    ```
+
+
+
+## Simple serialization for authentication
+
+The new APIs in ASP.NET make it easier to add authentication to existing Blazor Web Apps. These APIs, now part of the Blazor Web App project template, allow authentication state to be serialized on the server and deserialized in the browser, simplifying the process of integrating authentication. This removes the need for developers to manually implement or copy complex code, especially when using WebAssembly-based interactivity.
+
+For more info:

+- [learn.microsoft.com > manage authentication state](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/security/server/?view=aspnetcore-9.0#manage-authentication-state-in-blazor-web-apps)
+
+
+
+## Easily add static server-side rendering pages
+
+With .NET 9, adding static server-side rendering (SSR) pages to globally interactive Blazor Web Apps has become simpler. The new `[ExcludeFromInteractiveRouting]` attribute allows developers to mark specific Razor component pages that require static SSR, such as those relying on HTTP cookies and the request/response cycle. Pages annotated with this attribute exit interactive routing and trigger a full-page reload, while non-annotated pages default to interactive rendering modes like `InteractiveServer`. This approach enables flexibility between static and interactive rendering depending on the page's requirements.
+
+For more info:
+
+* [learn.microsoft.com > render-modes](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/components/render-modes?view=aspnetcore-9.0#static-ssr-pages-in-a-globally-interactive-app)
+
+
+
+## Constructor Injection in Razor Components
+
+Razor components support constructor injection, allowing services like `NavigationManager` to be injected directly into a component's constructor. This can be used to manage navigation actions, such as redirecting the user upon an event like a button click.
+
+For more info:
+
+* [learn.microsoft.com> dependency-injection](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/fundamentals/dependency-injection?view=aspnetcore-9.0#request-a-service-in-a-component)
+
+
+
+## Configuring WebSocket Compression and Frame-Ancestors CSP in Interactive Server Components
+
+By default, Interactive Server components enable WebSocket compression and set a `frame-ancestors` Content Security Policy (CSP) to `self`, restricting embedding the app in `<iframe>`. Besides, compression can be disabled to improve security by setting `ConfigureWebSocketOptions` to null, though this may reduce performance. To prevent embedding the app in any `iframe` while maintaining WebSocket compression, set the `ContentSecurityFrameAncestorsPolicy` to 'none'.
+
+For more info:
+
+- [learn.microsoft.com > websocket compression](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/fundamentals/signalr?view=aspnetcore-9.0#websocket-compression-for-interactive-server-components)
+- [learn.microsoft.com > interactive server-side rendering when compression enabled](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/blazor/security/server/interactive-server-side-rendering?view=aspnetcore-9.0#interactive-server-components-with-websocket-compression-enabled)
+
+
+
+## Tracking Composition State with `KeyboardEventArgs.IsComposing`
+
+The new `KeyboardEventArgs.IsComposing` property indicates whether a keyboard event is part of a composition session, which is essential for properly handling international character input methods.
+
+
+
+## Configuring Row Overscan in `QuickGrid` with new `OverscanCount` parameter
+
+The `QuickGrid` component now includes an `OverscanCount` property, which controls how many extra rows are rendered before and after the visible area when virtualization is enabled. By default, `OverscanCount` is set to **3**, but it can be adjusted as below to **5**.
+
+```html
+<QuickGrid ItemsProvider="itemsProvider" Virtualize="true" OverscanCount="5">...</QuickGrid>
+```
+
+
+
+## Range Input Support in `InputNumber<TValue>` Component
+
+The `InputNumber<TValue>` component now supports the `type="range"` [attribute](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input/range), allowing for range inputs like sliders or dials. This feature supports model binding and form validation, offering a more interactive way to input numerical data compared to the traditional text box.
+
+```html
+<EditForm>
+     <InputNumber @bind-Value="Model.ProductCount" max="999" min="1" step="1" type="range" />
+</EditForm>
+
+@code {
+    public class MyModel
+    {
+        [Required, Range(minimum: 1, maximum: 999)]
+        public int ProductCount { get; set; }
+    }
+}
+```
