Building a Source Generator for C#
In this article we’ll be writing a Source Generator for C#. Along the way we’ll explain some of the key technologies you’re going to need to learn in order to build your own and some of the pitfalls you might encounter on the way.

Deep Dive into Reactive Programming with RxJS
One of the most challenging aspects of developing any user-facing application is handling asynchronous actions such as user input and API requests cleanly and robustly. RxJS helps developers author declarative code for handling side effects and asynchronous actions with continuous data streams and subscriptions.

Virtual Panel: How Open-Source is Helping to Change the World
Open-source is not only at the heart of the Cloud and the enterprise as we know them today, it also powers many initiatives around the globe that aim to change how technology is leveraged to solve real-world issues and strive to make it accessible in a more equitable way. InfoQ has taken the chance to speak with several companies that are helping make it happen.

Containers Are Contagious and Often Misused
Let’s get something straight right right from the start— this article is not to argue that containers are bad; containers are certainly one of many great options developers have in their hands today. This article is also not scoped at the pros/cons of containers; my intent is just to present the developers and dev leads with some considerations around containers.

The Game Master's Framework for Software Development
The Game Master Framework for Software (GeMs) combines role-playing concepts with software development, effectively creating a framework to deliver software in complex and chaotic environments. GeMs allows you to use your skills from playing Warhammer, WoW, Dungeons, or dragons, and C’thulu, to create software. GeMs combes gaming tactics with software creation.

The Future of Windows (and Other Platforms) Development
Microsoft is looking to address the fragmentation in the Windows developer ecosystem through Windows UI and Project Reunion. In this article, we’ll see how different groups of Windows developers will be able to adopt Project Reunion. We’ll also look at how Project Reunion, coupled with the Uno Platform, can be used to extend a Windows application across iOS, macOS, Android, Web, and even Linux.

Site Reliability Engineering for Native Mobile Apps
In this article, we will describe how we can apply Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) principles to mobile app development. First, we will describe the key SRE tenets and what tools can be used to implement them. Then, we will delve into organization topology, i.e. how an organization can be designed to adopt SRE for mobile app development.

Implementing Microservicilities with Quarkus and MicroProfile
Microservicilities is a list of cross-cutting concerns that a service must implement apart from the business logic. These concerns include invocation, elasticity and resiliency, among others. This article describes how Quarkus and MicroProfile may be used to implement these concerns.

Deep Diving into EF Core: Q&A with Jeremy Likness
Entity Framework (EF) Core is a cross-platform, extensible, open-source object-database mapper for .NET. Since its first release in 2016, EF Core evolved until reaching its current form: a powerful and lightweight .NET ORM. InfoQ interviewed Jeremy Likness, program manager for .NET Data at Microsoft, to understand more about EF Core and what we should expect for its next release later this year.

Can We Trust the Cloud Not to Fail?
I will start with the theory behind failure detection, and then review a couple of real-world examples of how the mechanism works in a real cloud - on Azure. Even though this article includes real-world applications of failure detection within Azure, the same notions could also apply to GCP, AWS, or any other distributed system.

Increasing Developer Effectiveness by Optimizing Feedback Loops
We can think of engineering as a series of feedback loops: simple tasks that developers do and then validate to get feedback, which might be by a colleague, a system (i.e. an automation) or an end user. Using a framework of feedback loops we have a way of measuring and prioritizing the improvements we need to do to optimize developer effectiveness.

Compiled, Typed, Ruby-Inspired Crystal Language is Ready for Production - Q&A with Beta Ziliani
The Crystal language is ready for production, 12 years after inception. Crystal is compiled for performance, typed for safety, and Ruby-like for productivity. Due to the strong type inference, developers need only sparse type annotations. We interviewed the head of the Crystal team on the language tradeoffs, the present features and the language roadmap.
