GitHub & Reddit: OP - "here's this wonderful thing for free", users be like "let's complain about this and other things"

OSS still matters when building components in an AI world. We now have 1 of the largest control libs for Blazor & MAUI shinylib.net/controls & the most feature rich CameraView to date: shinylib.net/controls/cam... #dotnet #dotnetmaui

The most complete DocumentDB implementation in .NET. 10 Providers, LINQ, Diffs, No Schemas, Calculations, Vectors, AI Tools, Observable, Temporal - ALL WITH FULL AOT SPEED! shinylib.net/documentdb/ #dotnet

Using .NET Orleans? Want a queryable grain state layer without kicking all the grains to life? Give this a try: shinylib.net/documentdb/o... #dotnet

The attached post 👇 is absolutely true for those companies that approached AI in a mindless way. The fact is that pretty much everybody is using AI. The "you'll be left behind if you don't adopt AI" thing is stale. Everybody's adopted AI. 1/10

Today 2PM EST, @redth.bsky.social & @allanritchie.com tackle the pain of CI + mobile releases with new features for .NET MAUI Sherpa. Come hang with the old guys from Gone .NET 👉 www.youtube.com/@GoneDotNet #dotnet #dotnetmaui

Shiny DocDB v4: AI Tools that let your LLM talk to your db like it's ordering a coffee at Tim's. All operations, field-level access control, AOT, & readonly by default because AI with full access is more reckless than driving in a Montreal roundabout. shinylib.net/blog/2026/04...

We politely generated all your AI tool boilerplate so you don't have to. Shiny.Extensions.DependencyInjection — source-generates AITools from your services interfaces. Full type safety, AOT-safe. Sorry not sorry, eh. shinylib.net/blog/2026/04... #dotnet #ai #canadianjokes

Writing AI tool definitions by hand is like shovelling snow in April — unnecessary suffering. Shiny Mediator auto-generates AI functions from your .NET contracts. 1 attribute, 0 drama. Fully AOT-safe. More time for beer eh! shinylib.net/blog/2026/04... #dotnet #ai #canadianjokes

Just like universal healthcare, Shiny Health works for everyone 🇨🇦 One API. iOS + Android. Steps, heart rate, blood pressure, calories — 12 metrics, zero platform #ifdefs. Sorry for making it this easy. shinylib.net/health #dotnet #dotnetmaui #canadianjokes

Looking for a great ChatView? How about an Image Editor? A Bottom Sheet? We've got more options than a Timmies drive-thru menu — and unlike that double-double, these are free to try. Check us out: shinylib.net/controls/ #dotnet #dotnetmaui #canadianjokes

Shiny .NET MAUI Shell - Now with AI navigation for your entire app - Read about here: shinylib.net/blog/2026/04... #dotnet #dotnetmaui

Jon has been off on vacation, Allan got lazy, then a rabbit came & dropped off chocolates. Anyhow, they're back this week. Doing some Starwars+AI+BLE which may turn into an AI murder bot... let's hope not! Fri April 17 - 12:30pm EST youtube.com/@GoneDotNet #dotnet #ai

Went from zero UI tests to 48 automated tests in one session using MauiDevFlow and AI. No external servers, just an in-process agent and a CLI. More productive than a beaver with a Home Depot gift card. allanritchie.com/blog/maui-ui... #dotnet #dotnetmaui

.NET MAUI Shell is great, but what if navigation was type-safe, source-gen, & fully testable? Shiny MAUI Shell takes it to the next level /w DI support & no manual wiring. Smoother than a fresh sheet of ice after the 1st period. allanritchie.com/blog/shiny-m... #dotnet #dotnetmaui

Full CRUD access to device contacts in .NET MAUI — LINQ queries, native translation, both platforms. Easier than finding a Tim Hortons in Ontario. allanritchie.com/blog/shiny-c... #dotnet #dotnetmaui

A DocumentDB implementation that started with SQLite. Now supports MySQL, SQL Server, and PostgreSQL. Same LINQ API, same AOT support — just pick your backend. More versatile than a Canadian apologizing in three languages. Sorry. allanritchie.com/blog/shiny-d... #dotnet #dotnetmaui

Shiny Client v4 is here, eh. Windows support for BLE, HTTP Transfers, and Locations. .NET 10. Improvements across the board. This release has more power than a zamboni with a turbo kit. allanritchie.com/blog/shiny-c... #dotnet #dotnetmaui

Built a native Mermaid diagram renderer for .NET MAUI. No WebView, no extra dependencies, fully AOT-safe. It's like the Zamboni of diagram controls — just smooths everything out while everyone else watches. shinylib.net/maui/mermaid... #dotnet #dotnetmaui

Tired of building calendar UIs from scratch in .NET MAUI? Yeah, sorry, but that's just unnecessary suffering eh. Shiny.Maui.Scheduler gives you 3 new views - Calendar, Agenda, & Event List - AOT-safe & fully customizable shinylib.net/maui/schedul... #dotnet #dotnetmaui

@stonis.bsky.social You had a good question about using mauidevflow for automated UI testing. It's actually pretty easy to have AI generate the tests while using mauidevflow to perform the automation. I did a basic sample here: github.com/shinyorg/won...

Tired of the basic relational SQLite db support you get on #dotnetmaui - why not try out our new SQLite document DB? It's faster, smarter, & super feature rich - no need for migrations either - shinylib.net/data/documen... #dotnet

We've always been behind with our documentation, but we have a lot of libraries. As of today - we now have great documentation - check out all of our new libraries at shinylib.net #dotnet #dotnetmaui

We have lunched Shiny Mobile v4 - Lots of bugfixes for Bluetooth LE, BLE Hosting, GPS, HTTP Transfers & more - we also offer Windows support on many of our popular libraries now. Come check it out at shinylib.net/client/relea... #dotnetmaui #dotnet

We'll be playing "Jonny on the spot" this week by testing Jon's AI bossypants. He'll be given an app & be forced to use Allan's libraries (and Allan doesn't do documentation). Come troll/cheer on Jon... err...copilot FRIDAY - 2PM EST - youtube.com/@GoneDotNet

Tune in this Thursday for some amazing .NET MAUI demos that will blow your mind with @allanritchie.com, @redth.bsky.social, @davidortinau.com and myself! And of course, you in the chat??? www.youtube.com/watch?v=nY74...
