github-docs VS CSharpFunctionalExtensions

In college, an English professor would ask me and other students the following question when reviewing our essays, “Where are the examples?” Developers ask the same question when reading your documentation. To write good technical writing documents, include examples that developers can see themselves implementing in their work. How can this be done? By adding examples from your product’s codebase! 🙂 Let’s look at this code snippet from my contribution to GitHub’s documentation:

Need an example? Check the GitHub docs contributing guide.

git clone https://github.com/github/docs.git 123.57s user 37.02s system 74% cpu 3:35.73 total

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/github/docs.git 3.37s user 1.83s system 35% cpu 14.521 total

Not a scientific test at all, but the second one was literally 35x faster, wall clock time.

Docs

The strange thing is that I only have this problem with github, all other websites work just fine. And even docs.github.com works fine...

99.9 at best for enterprise cloud: https://github.com/github/docs/blob/main/content/site-policy/site-policy-deprecated/github-enterprise-service-level-agreement.md

A project repository typically has a license file at the top-level indicating which license the code falls under. See here for an example license file.

Hey, I am considering adopting the Result pattern in my codebase. Wanted to get some opinions from someone who has experience with it: should I start with language-ext or FunctionalExtensions?

I like both of those libraries but my favorite is CSharpFunctionalExtensions.

This very popular library CSharpFunctionalExtensions does not add the “Async” suffix because:

Something that also has types to handle such cases is https://github.com/vkhorikov/CSharpFunctionalExtensions

CSharpFunctionalExtensions Really great, this is all you need

https://github.com/vkhorikov/CSharpFunctionalExtensions is a small library that has a really nice Result type included, which allows implicit converisons.

If you think your Kentico Xperience site might benefit from returning failures and using the Result monad, checkout the CSharpFunctionalExtensions library and my library-in-progress XperienceCommunity.CQRS. It codifies these patterns for data retrieval and integrates cross-cutting concerns like logging and caching.
