Issue 34

JOSE JAVIER COLUMBIE

Hello XAFers,

A lot of great articles on this issue. I fell mountain biking and was out of service for a few days but I am back with links for load testing, dashboards for XAF Blazor, property editors in 20.2 and a lot more.

XAFers Jobs and the XAF Url Shortener also have new URLs so check those ones below.

I am looking forward to our monthly session as we will be discussing UI customization and I am hoping to get a lot of great screenshots from the community.

Until next one, XAF out!
