How to do keyset (cursor) pagination in EF Core 11

Replace Skip/Take with a WHERE clause that seeks past the last row you saw. Order by a fully unique key, carry the last row's values as a cursor, and EF Core 11 turns the next page into an index seek instead of an OFFSET scan.

How to map and query JSON columns in EF Core 11

Map a nested type to a single JSON column with ComplexProperty(...).ToJson(), let EF Core 11 store it in the native SQL Server 2025 json type, then query into it with LINQ that translates to JSON_VALUE, JSON_CONTAINS, and JSON_PATH_EXISTS.

How to register and resolve keyed services in .NET 11 dependency injection

Register more than one implementation of the same interface under a key with AddKeyedSingleton/Scoped/Transient, then resolve them with [FromKeyedServices], GetRequiredKeyedService, or KeyedService.AnyKey. The keyed and non-keyed registries are separate, which is the gotcha that bites most people.

How to configure CORS for a JWT-protected API in ASP.NET Core 11

A complete guide to CORS for a bearer-token API in ASP.NET Core 11: the correct UseCors ordering relative to authentication, why a bearer token in the Authorization header is not a CORS credential, why AllowAnyHeader works but a manual wildcard does not cover Authorization, and how to keep preflight from failing.

What is the DynamicallyAccessedMembers attribute?

DynamicallyAccessedMembers tells the .NET trimmer and AOT compiler which members of a Type you reach by reflection, so they are kept instead of trimmed away. It turns a silent runtime MissingMethodException into a build-time IL2070 warning. Here is what the attribute does, how the data-flow analysis behind it works, and how to annotate parameters, fields, and generic type parameters correctly.

What is ValueTask<T> and when is it worth it?

ValueTask and ValueTask<T> are structs that let an async method return a result without heap-allocating a Task when it completes synchronously. The win is one fewer allocation on hot paths that usually finish without awaiting. The cost is a strict await-once contract. Here is what the type actually is, how it works, and the narrow set of cases where it earns its keep.
