Understand the platform
Frameworks change. Knowledge of runtimes, HTTP, browsers, data and operating systems lasts longer.
Software engineering
Platforms, frameworks and practices for building software.
A single entry point to .NET, React, the web platform, APIs, architecture and the tools that make software understandable and maintainable.
Development brings together the technologies and practices I use to turn ideas and requirements into software. .NET is a central and mature area, while React, the web platform and other subjects will gain dedicated depth as the content grows.
AI development has its own area because agentic tools affect the entire engineering process and deserve more than being a subsection of one particular framework.
Dedicated knowledge area
.NET
The most developed engineering area here: C#, the runtime, ASP.NET Core, EF Core, Aspire, architecture and important expert voices.

REFrontend
React
Component-based user-interface development. The official React documentation is the starting point while this area grows.
Open ↗WEBHTML · CSS · JavaScriptThe web platform
Browser standards and APIs form the foundation beneath every web framework. MDN is the essential living reference.
Open ↗APISystem designAPIs and integration
Contracts, messaging, authentication, authorisation and the trade-offs that emerge when systems must cooperate over time.
Open →GITWorkflowGitHub and source control
Version control, issues, pull requests, automation and documentation that make changes traceable and reviewable.
Open ↗Principles for this area
Make quality executable
Builds, tests, formatting, static analysis and CI should express project requirements mechanically.
Design for change
Clear boundaries and contracts reduce the cost when technology, teams or requirements change.
