Hello, I am Sebastian Gingter

I am a professional software developer for over two decades, and in that time I had the luck to experience a lot of technologies and how software development in general changed over the years.

Here at Thinktecture my primary focus is right on backend technologies with (ASP) .NET Core, Identity and Access Management (AIM), developer productivity and tooling as well as software quality.

Since I held my first conference talk back in 2008 I love sharing my experience and learnings with you. I speak on conferences internationally and write articles here, on my personal blog and in print.
Because I love to explain things a lot, they call me the "Erklärbär" .

Let's get in touch!

.NET 7 Performance: Introduction and Runtime Optimizations – Part 1

.NET 7 Performance: Introduction and Runtime Optimizations – Part 1

.NET 7 is fast. Superfast. All the teams at Microsoft working on .NET are keen to improve the performance and do so every year with each new .NET release. Though this time the achievements are really impressive. In this series of short articles, we want to explore some of the most significant performance updates in .NET and look at how that may affect our own projects. This first article is taking a deep look under the hood of the compiler and the runtime to look for some remarkably interesting and significant updates.

Understanding and Controlling the Blazor WebAssembly Startup Process

Understanding and Controlling the Blazor WebAssembly Startup Process

There are a lot of things going on in the background, when a Blazor WebAssembly application is being started. In some cases you might want to take a bit more control over that process. One example might be the wish to display a loading screen for applications that take some time for initial preparation, or when users are on a slow internet connection. However, in order to control something, we need to understand what is happening first. This article takes you down the rabbit hole of how a Blazor WASM application starts up.

Dependency Injection Scopes in Blazor

Dependency Injection Scopes in Blazor

The dependency injection system is a big part of how modern ASP.NET Core works internally: It provides a flexible solution for developers to structure their projects, decouple their dependencies, and control the lifetimes of the components within an application. In Blazor - a new part of ASP.NET Core - however, the DI system feels a bit odd, and things seem to work a bit differently than expected. This article will explain why this is not only a feeling but indeed the case in the first place and how to handle the differences in order to not run into problems later on.
