.NET 7 Overview - What's New, Should You Use It, and More 

The best, most practical, succinct list and explanation I've seen so far. I love your no nonsense approach. You don't take sides. You tell us what we need to know when we are heading into work to make decisions. Thank you.

Tim, you are my favorite teacher. I can't thank you enough for sharing your knowledge here!

Great overview. I can't wait to see the upcoming videos.

Thank you Tim. One of the best videos again. Really appreciate your efforts for brining this valuable information to millions of people for free..

As always a great video Tim. Very keen to get a deeper look at the new Blazor features!

On an upwards towards 500K subs Tim, and for good reason. Another great and informative video!!

Timely, thank you.

Thank you again Tim.

Tim, you are the best tutor I have met. I havn't seen any concept that you are not able to breakdown well enough for anyone to understand regardless the listeners level of intelligence. Could you please do something on clean Architecture. I have seen a lot of videos of tutors just talking to themseleves thinking they are communicating, but you my friend can make it simpler.

Note: TAR is not a compression file type. It's a tape archive that puts files in consecutive order to make it easier to search them. Think zip without the compression.

A minor grumble - TARs don't compress the constituent files, they're just containers and you'll still need to gzip them.

Thanks Tim, I'm testing this new version focus on blazor and MAUI. I'll be hoping your next videos of this version.

Thanks great explanation

Thanks for this. I just started coding with C# independently and all the different versions got me very confused. I kinda wanted to know what is relevant. It feels like they update it very frequently, but I don't know.. was there any significant done with the earlier versions then? Those videos about the winforms etc. was very good also thanks for those.

My take on upgrading is that STS versions are supported until next LTS. In theory it should be easier to go from 7 to 8 than 6 to 8. Therefor I will try and update at any new versions. With high enough test coverage you should feel safe to do so. You miss out on new features and general improvements for 2 years for no real reason.

Thank you

Filters are a nice addition (or addback). Of course, we've also sworn off non-LTS releases. Will be upgrading to .NET 7 soon. Grrr.... 18 months tick, tick, tick....

Will there likely be updated versions like 7.1, 7.2, etc.? If so, how does the support for those incremental versions work? This is the best C# YT Channel. Thanks, Thumbs ups!

they tempt you with all these shiny new features

"Faster than 6, which was faster than 5, which was faster than Core 3.1" -- there's just something funny in somebody succinctly but accurately going through Microsoft's chaotic (too harsh?) version / brand / labeling scheme through the years that is worth a chuckle. That doesn't even begin to scratch the whole .NET Framework -> .NET Core -> .NET timeline and history. C# is my ride or die, but it hasn't been easy sticking with it...

I’m still on VS 2017 Express, the last VS version free for commercial use in companies. We have a large LOB C# winforms app. Does this release fix all the winforms issues? Can you only develop with paid VS?

Great video, Thanks for sharing,.

I heard you talking about virtualization. Loading a dropdown as you scroll… do you have a video about that? That’s exactly what I need for a use case I have. Thanks!

I've just started learning C#!

Hi Mr Tim, I am new in C# development. Could you please tell me the learning path to become a .NET developer. If you answer. it would make me really gland. Thanks a million in advance

Mr Corey i am inspecting your web page and i see core mvc. I would like to ask you a small question. one of my projects is an mvc .net framework project. I am haveing a problem that i couldnt understand why. I am makeing a small record. User is changing status of a file and its working on my table as lets say fileStatuChanges. In my codes I am getting user from session, file id and status id from form's posting. I have done project as code first. fileStatus Change does not have properties like userId, fileId and statusId. It has got virtual user, virtual file and virtual status. So in my function i am calling from database user by userId from session, file by fileId and status by statusId from actionresult posting. finaly i create a fileStutChanges class and fill those properties. after that i make my adding to database and saveing. Mostly its successfull but something like 1/1000 chance its userId or kargoId records to db as null. Why can it happen? I am using entity framework.

Also, nothing was mentioned about new features of c# 11. The most important part for c# 11 is static with interfaces. Allows interfaces to be more powerful than ever and more flexible which allowed generic math to happen.

Was waiting for AES and WASM multithreading, they pushed both to 8.

I'm confused, i tried to see what .NET i have, and there are so many version numbers, and the global seems to be be 17.2.5 about the studio, where can i see if i have .NET 5 or 6?

Great Overview of .Net 7 , I feel it could have been bit shorter in duration

Do you know if it comes with the ability to do slot swaps in Azure without downtime for Blazor Server Apps?

Please do some benchmark comparasion to .net 6 with alghoritms etc

How often does anyone actually update the framework of their existing projects?

hi is Net 7 drop in replacement for Net6 ?

Since .NET 7 is STS, should I use it for production or wait .NET 8 LTS?

Maybe wrong but is async zip now available?

am new to all this stuff does .net 7 improve gaming vs .net 4.8?

I‘m about to redo my wpf erp application as an asp.net one. Should i wait for full release?

In practical terms, what exactly does that "Microsoft support" mean?

i’ve been learning c# off and on for a couple years now. i just started back up a few weeks ago. i’m gonna stick with 6. currently i’m using a mac but their hardly any tutorials for mac. My main focus is game dev with unity but i wanna make stuff for desktop. 99% of the vids i find at for windows and don’t work well on mac. Any body have any good advice. and please don’t say buy a pc. i don’t want one. i no longer like windows. i know there’s other languages but this was my first.

when its going to release?

Thanks

😎

I think Blazor is the new Silverlight.

We need to have a better data bridge with JS. I don’t know why Microsoft doesn’t do this ?

Are there any plans from microsoft to make a project type like flutter for ui design

I was trying to learn c# in 5 but trying to make c# sound like python just a single they are just confusing us, I believe it should be left to display

Any breaking changes?

JS should be easy to write side by side with C# but Microsoft just doesn’t see it yet.

Microsoft is missing on the biggest segment of the market with JS.

Hi Tim, many thanks from Paris for this intresting video. Have you a LinkedIn page or account where you publish too this videos? we can like and share them with our contacts!

For two decades, I have wanted tar support... When I heard tar was not supported, I let out a "Thank you , Je**s" (enter your own deity)

Why just dont they name it updates for .net. just one net with updates. In that way other prev version looks outdated. Dont know with others, this numbering version make me upset

"Tar file creation", "super simple", "TEN MINUTES VIDEO" Haha what? If it's simple shouldn't it be a three minute video? Or you really want to get over that monetization mark of ten minutes?

.net 7 is being ignored by most companies because of the lack of JS compatibility.

You talk too much and give no descriptive evidence of the improvements. Not good.
