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.

Exception Handling in C# Methods returning object
A lot of people have given you good replies, but have you looked at Refit?
-
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 ?
Refit - simple, typed REST clients: https://github.com/reactiveui/refit

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

ASP.NET Core - how to properly make a GET request?
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.

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.
AutoFixture
-
API: Go, .NET, Rust
Yes, it does feel like some of the "standard stuff" in other more nuanced languages are missing (especially miss AutoFixture ngl). Some of those are a conscious decison by the golang team for example.

Integration Testing Postgres Store
Our first test is very easy, I like to name my tests as MethodName_GivenCondition_ShouldExpectedResult to follow the pattern, I have added GetById_GivenRecordDoesNotExist_ShouldReturnNull and I am going to leavarage excellent AutoFixture to get a new Guid as parameter. For this test we don't need arrange part, we would skip to the act and then assert. For Assertion I am going to use FluentAssertions. For this test we need to assert the returned result is null.

Setting up a simple testing project with C#
The next test to talk about, is that if this was a bank, we would have multiple customers, who can hold multiple accounts that we need to calculate the interest for. You could manually construct these objects if you want, but I'm going to use a package called AutoFixture to make life easier.

AutoFixture Tips and Tricks
AutoFixture is an amazing library that simplifies the process of creating test data in .NET. If for some reason you don't use this fantastic tool, it's time to consider it. Today, I'm going to share some tips for using AutoFixture that will be beneficial for developers of all skill levels. Let's get started!
- Integration tests without API dependencies with ASP.NET Core and WireMock.Net
-
I need a C# crash course for experienced developers

Reduce your tests cognitive complexity with AutoFixture
Ensuring that your test is still readable and not bloated by the setup of those variables may be quite a challenge but hopefully no more with AutoFixture, let's see how!

Practical complex data for unit testing
One neat library for creating and generating test data is AutoFixture. The creators describe it as follows:

14 .NET packages I always recommend
First time I heard of Bogus, looks interesting, been using AutoFixture for those will definitely take a look at it.
- LPT: There is a library called Bogus, you should know it exists much earlier than I did in my career.
What are some alternatives?
RestSharp - Simple REST and HTTP API Client for .NET
Bogus - :card_index: A simple fake data generator for C#, F#, and VB.NET. Based on and ported from the famed faker.js.
Flurl.Http - Fluent URL builder and testable HTTP client for .NET
NSubstitute - A friendly substitute for .NET mocking libraries.
RestEase - Easy-to-use typesafe REST API client library for .NET Standard 1.1 and .NET Framework 4.5 and higher, which is simple and customisable. Inspired by Refit
FakeItEasy - The easy mocking library for .NET
NSwag - The Swagger/OpenAPI toolchain for .NET, ASP.NET Core and TypeScript.
Moq - Repo for managing Moq 4.x [Moved to: https://github.com/moq/moq]
Simple.OData.Client
NBuilder - Rapid generation of test objects in .NET
Ocelot - .NET API Gateway
FsCheck - Random Testing for .NET
