Hello XAFers,
20.2 EAP is out and is looking more promising by the day. (I believe we have to do another Stand-up just on Blazor).
And talking about our XAFers Community StandUp, exactly a week from now we are back. And this time let's invite all our .NET developers friends and colleagues and let's show them:
What is XAF? XPO? and Why should they care?
How to skyrocket productivity while developing LOB applications you ask? We have the answer.
We also are going to make sure we answer all of your questions, we still have a few pending from last one and also, we want you (the community) to drive our sessions with your questions and real problems, so don't hold back, you will get an answer or a follow up wait for it ... guaranteed.
