Choosing Between Controllers and Minimal API for .NET APIs
Bonus Time! In addition to the Microsoft-supported methods above, many community frameworks exist for building APIs with .NET. FastEndpoints is an option I found recently that seems very promising. With performance benchmarks that put them on par with Minimal API, they are firmly ahead of Controller-based APIs.

How do you structure large Minimal API Projects?
Have you had a look at FastEndpoints yet? Any thoughts?

Microsoft launches new app store for Windows – from React to Shoelace, Lit, Vite
And yet, all Microsoft's demos for the upcoming changes for Blazor in .NET 8 (like SSR) has been a public facing recipe site (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QD2-DwuOfKM). I'd say this is a very similar use case as the Microsoft Store.
I love .NET and ASP.NET Core, but I use it purely for backend. And even there, I use 3rd party libraries like Fast Endpoints (https://fast-endpoints.com/). Microsoft keeps bringing in new technologies and effectively abandoning the ones that fall out of favour (look at the progression from MVC -> Razor Pages -> Blazor). I do not blame the Microsoft Store team for not trusting the .NET team to not simply abandon Blazor as well somewhere down the line and instead opt for other technologies for the front-end.

Idea validation | low-code API factory
I also find a very similar framework in .NET "Fast Endpoints"

Easiest way to build the fastest REST API in C# and .NET 7 using CQRS
I gave it a go and I was impressed how easy and fast it was to set it all up. Since I'm not a big fan of REPR pattern almost all my projects are using CQRS pattern with a help of MediatR ](https://github.com/jbogard/MediatR) I immediately started going over something similar that Fast Endpoints offer which is a command bus.
- Should I utilize C#/.NET Core, or go with Typescript for a React front end?

Which 'part' of dotnet should I learn for backend web dev?
Ive personally been using FastEndpoints which is a community built thing on top of minimal apis - https://fast-endpoints.com/

Reprise - a micro-framework that brings the REPR pattern into Minimal APIs
I've just started to use a similar thing, and it's so much better than controllers - https://fast-endpoints.com/

Http calls on mobile, what is the preferred way / best practice
Another question that rises is, would it be better to use some HttpClient package to handle the requests, like Refit in combination with Polly. But then again, it seems Refit also uses the HttpClient factory, which was a bad thing according to the previous?

Refactor your dotNET HTTP Clients to Typed HTTP Clients
Define a Refit client interface with the following for each API endpoint, e.g. GET /foo:

HttpClient best approach
Use RestEase to create your own client library. Refit is a very similar and more popular library. IMO RestEase is an improvement over Refit and I prefer it, but either will solve your problems. Both are libs that have you build interfaces describing the API endpoints, then the library handles all the boilerplate code that calls HttpClient.

What your hidden nuget gems ?

how to structure code for rest api calls
I'd advise using this https://github.com/reactiveui/refit tool for HTTP requests. It saves a lot of time for serialization, deserialization and exception handling.

Roadmap for transition from Java
Use Refit, and let manage the live of HttpClient. Also, Refit will give you a strongly typed client around an API. All you have to write is the interface. Ain't that neat ? If you can't, use the HttpClientFactory to create the HttpClient instance: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/architecture/microservices/implement-resilient-applications/use-httpclientfactory-to-implement-resilient-http-requests

Integration tests without API dependencies with ASP.NET Core and WireMock.Net
The controller is simple and use the Refit library to abstract the PokéAPI call and then, returns the data.

I love refit
To be fair, Refit is pretty great.
