Dive into the world of functional programming with Simon Painter, a .NET developer with 20 years of experience who literally wrote the book on functional C#. Simon breaks down this powerful programming paradigm in refreshingly accessible terms, comparing it to connecting Lego bricks to create increasingly complex systems.
Beyond his professional work, Simon shares his passion through teaching children Python at a code club, speaking at conferences worldwide, and authoring "Functional Programming with C#" (O'Reilly). Whether you're curious about a different programming approach or seeking more reliable, testable code, this episode provides a compelling introduction to thinking functionally.

We break down Blazor’s render modes in plain language. Server side rendering for instant first paint, streaming SSR for progressive content, interactive Server with SignalR for low latency, and Blazor WebAssembly when you want client side execution and near native speed. With the .NET 8 Blazor Web App template, you can pre render for speed, attach Server for responsiveness, and hydrate WASM in the background so returning visits feel instantaneous. If desktop or mobile is on the roadmap, Blazor Hybrid with .NET MAUI lets the same components run across Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android.
