What is .net reads?

Polly

Recentlly I was able to view a presentation on Building resilient applications with Polly.NET on youtube, by Nuno Caneco at netponto community on how to build a .NET resilient app. The presentation and content are in Portuguese, so it would be difficult to understand it if you don’t speak portuguese.

It was the first time I heard bout Polly and I liked it!

.NET Foundation

The .net foundation is an independent organization to promote innovation and to improve the future of .NET ecosystem. If you are a .NET developer and you don’t know ahout .NET Foundation or you don’t follow it, take a look about it on the official web site.
