I added performance benchmarks to my BlazorWebFormsComponents to show what a performance improvement it is to migrate from WebForms to Blazor
Initial reports show a 2x - 4x performance improvement before any tuning.. JUST doing the migration on some simple demo apps

My latest side project, this takes an MSBuild binlog file and transforms it into a Perfetto trace
msbuild-binlog-perfview.pages.dev
MCP server of the day: mcp-binlog-tool. Rather than manually generate and inspect msbuild binary logs, why not have GitHub Copilot just build and analyze it? Those binlogs contain a *LOT* more information than what you see in the terminal output: github.com/baronfel/mcp...
Support for multiple files in file-based apps, via the new `#:include` directive. The item type is derived from the file extension in the path/glob you provide & is extensible via MSBuild, so *.cs -> Compile, *.json -> Content, etc. Coming in .NET SDK 10.0.300

Some of this is marketing hype from people who are selling AI tools (Boris works on Claude Code) but it rings true
Another winter break coding side quest...
I created a CLI tool called "burrow" for managing local secrets, inspired by `dotnet user-secrets`. But, it’s a standalone executable and it uses SQLite instead of JSON as the backing store.
