Scalar vs Swagger UI for OpenAPI documentation in ASP.NET Core 11

Scalar ships 1.02 MiB of gzipped JavaScript and a far better request builder. Swagger UI ships 514 KiB and renders OpenAPI 3.2, which is what .NET 11 now emits by default. Measured payloads, the 3.2 gap, endpoint routing on both sides, and the auth details that decide it.

Zstandard vs Brotli vs Gzip response compression in .NET 11

Zstandard is the right default for dynamic API responses in .NET 11, but not at the quality the ASP.NET Core provider ships with.

Test Explorer drives xUnit v3 through Microsoft.Testing.Platform server mode over a JSON-RPC socket, dotnet test does not. Set UseMicrosoftTestingPlatformRunner so both paths are the same code, or set DisableTestingPlatformServerCapability to fall back to VSTest.

Fix: dotnet tool install --global dotnet-ef throws an error

Every way dotnet tool install --global dotnet-ef fails on the .NET 10 SDK, with the exact message and exit code for each: already installed, version not found, downgrade blocked, shim conflict, dead NuGet feed, and the runtime mismatch that only breaks after the install succeeds.

Fix: The 'interceptors' feature is not enabled in this namespace

CS9137 comes from the Microsoft.AspNetCore.OpenApi source generator. Add InterceptorsNamespaces to every project that calls AddOpenApi, not just the one holding the PackageReference.

Fix: The type or namespace name 'OpenApiReference' could not be found
