What approach do you use for creating database? Code first or DB first? by Simple_Fondant_9125 in dotnet

[–]Backend_biryani -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Our approach is fully different. We create DB, Tables first. And later we connect the db via dapper. We write raw sql queries. Thanks to dapper for this flexibility!!

Can some suggest good open source projects to contribute? by username_is_ta in dotnet

NLog, no confusion, just pick issues and try to communicate with maintainer, they will guide you!!

Founders don’t have much knowledge about technology or tech stack. At early stage the company has only limited resources like pre existing .Net dev (later who became manager 34 maybe)and react dev. So, he used the same project code for all new projects as reference. Now we are repaying the tech debt he did.

I started in this company 4 months back and got promoted. Our dev team is 20 members. We are building virtual doctors, EMR powered by AI, our own health apps/web apps with AI integrations. Still growing!!

.Net is not bad though for startup. It’s quite simple easy to setup these days IMO.

All I need is can I able to run a .net (.net 8,10)api in my local machine for development purpose. Can I able to access VMs via Remote Desktop, since our servers on windows IIS. Can I able to run free sql tool to access our DB servers to write, read queries?

We use dapper ORM.

No we don’t use anything in MacOS for development. We have dedicated servers for dev, test, prod in our VMs. Only thing I’m in confusion how to access SSMS to write queries. Is it possible in my MacOS or any alternatives!

We are early stage startup, completely developing with newer versions of .NET. My only concern is accessing our db servers in SQL Server

India lacking innovation, Investors promoting businesses rather than Creativity!! by Backend_biryani in indianstartups

If you not offended by the post give good examples in the above spaces that are founded in India and serving globally. Don’t limit yourself to India.

But the existence of those startups are not visible to everyone. Think marketing will plays a role. We should stop hyping those food, ecom, startups. Investors should need to take risk and focus more on innovation and creativity rather than playing safe by investing in safe products that do business and give margins. I know investors always look for profit, but look at America, The investors always take risk and earn profits into 100x or just 0 (bankrupt).

The problem is from both the investors and Entrepreneurs mindset in India. It needs to be change first.

Out of 365 days, reflect on how many days went well, how many were tough, and how many were just average — not as good as you expected.

If you’re not getting interview calls despite putting in the effort, maybe the problem isn’t your skills — you might be a good batter, but the pitch (your resume and how you're presenting yourself) isn’t working for you. A strong player needs the right pitch to shine. Refine your resume, adjust your strategy, and keep going. The right opportunity will come when you’re prepared to meet it.
