QuestPDF: Modern .NET library for PDF document generation
I've been using Rotativa[1] for URL to PDF generation which is also a wrapper for wkhtmltopdf. They have a dotnet-core[2] version and also a SaaS[3] but I think it's worth mentioning that Azure PaaS supports wkhtmltopdf natively[4] so I just self-host.
Looking at QuestPDF's API docs, it doesn't look like they support URL / HTML to PDF generation. I think this would be a great addition especially given the age and issues with Rotativa and TuesPechkin on their GitHubs.

Programmatically Rendering PDFs from HTML using Chrome and Puppeteer
I've used numerous technologies for doing that conversion, including WebSuperGoo's ABCpdf.net, and Rotativa's free library. (We even have an article on how to use it.) The latter is still in use on some of my projects, but it—and its newer .Net Core version—is based on wkhtmltopdf.exe, which is a problem. More about that later.

Tackle 0 Byte files in Azure Blob Storage with ease using Azure PowerShell
In the search for the 0 Byte files I came across Azure temp and Azure cache folders on the Azure Web App. The application uses these folders to store temporary data from Azure Blob Storage. Through Kudu Console, a service available for Azure Web Apps, it is possible to navigate through these folders using the command prompt. By executing the following command line script all 0 Byte files will be searched and written to a txt file:
