Agenda:
WebAPI: MVC vs MinimalAPI vs FastEnpoints
(Johan Olsson)
When building a REST API in ASP.NET Core, you can choose between Controllers (MVC), Minimal APIs, and FastEndpoints. In this talk, we’ll explore the differences between these approaches and discuss when you might choose one over the others.

Lightning talk: Why should a .NET developer care about WebAssembly beyond the browser?
(Adam Mrozek)
WebAssembly is a portable, sandboxed execution layer with growing relevance for backend and cloud scenarios.

In this talk, we’ll explore how .NET runs on WASM and what the runtime model looks like.
We will look at use cases like: secure plugins, multi-tenant systems, and custom business logic.
Finally, we will see why this technology is becoming increasingly important outside the browser.

Demystifying authentication in ASP.NET Core
(Tore Nestenius)
In this talk, we’ll explain how authentication works in ASP.NET Core, which can be complicated and have many different parts. We’ll cover the main ideas, such as schemas, handlers, ClaimsPrincipal, claims, challenges, session cookies, and more. It will be a practical, in-depth look at how authentication actually works under the hood.
