Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

This week I released v2.1 of my text-templating library Weave that now uses Source Generators by default.
I'm mostly using it for C# API client generation from backend code - sort of similar to what a tool like NSwag Studio will do. I think NTypewriter has more flexibility though, and having a live view with the VS plugin makes development quick.

OpenAPI v4 Proposal
NSwag does a wonderful job of generating TypeScript clients from OpenAPI specs. Definitely give it a shot before killing your current setup.

The Typescript ecosystem is exhausting
I use this https://github.com/RicoSuter/NSwag but it's designed for .Net backends to some extent. But you can use the client generation from the command line or manually with the standalone client app.

Tool for generating example API requests and responses from OpenAPI
Here are three tools that you can use to generate example API requests and responses from OpenAPI specifications. These tools should work well even if your schemas are deeply nested: Nswag (Command Line and GUI): Nswag is a Swagger/OpenAPI toolchain for .NET, TypeScript, and other platforms. It supports code generation, client generation, and API documentation. You can use NswagStudio, which is a graphical interface, or you can use the command line tool called "NSwag.exe" for generating example API requests and responses. GitHub: https://github.com/RicoSuter/NJsonSchema NswagStudio: https://github.com/RicoSuter/NSwag/wiki/NSwagStudio Dredd (Command Line): Dredd is a language-agnostic command-line tool for validating API descriptions against backend implementations. It supports OpenAPI, Swagger, and API Blueprint formats. Dredd can generate example requests and responses and validate whether your API implementation conforms to the API description. GitHub: https://github.com/apiaryio/dredd Documentation: https://dredd.org/en/latest/ Stoplight Studio (GUI): Stoplight Studio is a modern API design and documentation platform that supports OpenAPI and JSON Schema. It allows you to create, edit, and validate OpenAPI specifications and provides a powerful visual interface for generating example API requests and responses. Website: https://stoplight.io/studio/ GitHub: https://github.com/stoplightio/studio These tools should provide you with the ability to generate example API requests and responses from your OpenAPI specifications and handle deeply nested schemas.

Web API generate of swagger json file
I’ve got an ASP.NET Core web API - I integrate NSwag (which I prefer to Swashbuckle - personal preference), run the app locally to generate the actual JSON file. See https://github.com/RicoSuter/NSwag Then I have a Bicep file that creates the API from the OpenAPI specification. Sorry - I don’t do Terraform (most of the Azure samples are of Bicep, but it should be easy to convert).
-
Open API Generators for Typescript / Node?
I have actually found that, but I was hoping for something with more popularity. E.g. this one is for .NET: https://github.com/RicoSuter/NSwag ( you can also generate typescript clients). But I do not want to bring in the dependency to another language, if possible.
-
Best practices of create models for back-end commutation.
If your API exposes a Swagger definition, you can use NSwag (https://github.com/RicoSuter/NSwag) to generate the TypeScript API Client and Models for you. We found this eliminates errors due to TS and API DTO’s not matching

The Retry Pattern and Retry Storm Anti-pattern
In our applications, we should wrap all requests to remote services in code that implements a retry policy that follows one of the strategies I listed earlier. If you are a .NET developer like myself, you may be familiar with the Polly library. Golang has a library called Retry, and there are numerous third-party libraries for Python and Java.

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?
-
[Question] HttpClient does not recover from error
D'Oh! Sorry, not PolySharp. I meant Polly. Too many similarly-named libraries!
-
I thought "Availability Groups" would be 100% "seamless"
Everywhere I've worked with AGs, we've worked with the application team to add retry logic to help make things a bit more seamless to end users. There are libraries out there that can make this pretty easy - Polly is one that I've used a few times, but there are others.
-
Do you really need "microservices"?
Fallacy 1: The network is reliable. If system 2 works perfectly well, but is not accessible for service 1 due to network issues, service 2 is still unavailable. This is why timeouts, service breakers and retry policies exist. A great tool for .NET to handle common network issues is Polly, but even when using a tool like this, the network is still not completely reliable.
-
Only "exit 1" if VISIBLE errors are thrown during script invocation, ignoring try/catch blocks
I see. Then I don't have any better idea right now, but I do want to suggest that if your script is mostly API calls and you want to be able to deal with failures then take a look at the polly library: https://github.com/App-vNext/Polly

Getting back into C# after a hiatus, any good reading material recommendations to get back up to speed? Been using Kotlin recently, and got quite a lot of experience in engineering.
Runs in containers nicely, has good integration with Kafka, RabbitMQ, gRPC, etc. for Microservices communication. Implements resiliency patterns you'd want in Microservices via Polly. Has a decent Dependency Injection framework built in by default.

What your hidden nuget gems ?
It's in no way hidden. But I use Polly all the time.
