This book presents a lot of material in a great format to expand your .NET skills into a Senior role. The concepts vary from intermediate to advanced topics. The coding examples and GitHub repo allow you read and debug the code as necessary. The list of tools to perform specific advanced skills were a great add to the book. Knowing what is available for accomplishing a variety of testing scenarios was very valuable. I have not previously explored security testing (usually handled by another team in my career) . This book is ideal for folks looking to move up in their career using .NET.

Tools and skills rarely get composed into a dedicated book, but this is a clever idea which takes software development up a notch.I have read several other books of Mark J. Price in the recent past and can tell that they form a logical learning path for the Microsoft platform. With his latest "Tools and Skills for .NET 8" it arguably completes it.I mean the order the books are released in makes a logical sequence.In my view, the book shines especially well in fine-tuning the .Net applications (the chapter on performance, load and stress testing). At least I discovered tools and techniques to do that.I even found a tool I never knew existed: Aspire. It not only sounds great, but constitutes a solid platform for building Cloud First (or Cloud-native) apps. Must get familiar!Lets add in the software engineering principals, testing and finally the teamwork, job search preparations and we get a solid set of recipes for seemingly any in real-life or future software engineer.It is hard to say what this book should or should not have covered, so it is a solid five out of five.

This is a surprisingly good book and read. It didn’t skim on any of the topics, even GIT. It even covered performance tests. There’s lots of example snippets of code too. I actually liked the chapter on containerisation and being a relative newbie this was a good read.Highly recommended book that covers a lot of current topics but well!

So I was able to read quite a bit of Mark J. Price's new book Tools and Skills for .NET 8 and I would definitely recommend having it on the shelf for reference. I've been developing software for almost 6 years and while there was a decent amount in the book that I was already privy to, Mark helped fill the gaps in my knowledge that wasn't always clear to me.Mark always does a great job of giving step by step instructions on examples so that you can follow along without any issues. And the level of detail he goes into with each topic leaves you feeling proficient in each subject.As I said, this book is definitely worth the purchase.
