Native AOT vs ReadyToRun vs JIT in .NET 11: which should you ship?

Plain JIT with Dynamic PGO wins steady-state throughput, ReadyToRun cuts startup with zero code changes, and Native AOT gives the smallest, fastest-starting binary at the cost of reflection and dynamic code. Pick by deployment shape, not raw benchmarks.

System.Text.Json vs Newtonsoft.Json in 2026: which should you pick?

Pick System.Text.Json for new .NET 11 code: it ships in-box, is roughly 2x faster, and is the only one that works with Native AOT. Reach for Newtonsoft.Json only for JSONPath, TypeNameHandling, or genuinely lenient JSON.

Fix: Unable to find a valid iOS Simulator runtime during MAUI build

Fix: Gradle build failed to produce an .apk file in MAUI Android

Nine out of ten times the real Gradle error is buried higher in the MSBuild log. JDK 17 path, missing maui-android workload, and Windows long paths are the usual root causes.
