Are you developing an AI-powered application but unsure whether Flutter or .NET MAUI is the right framework for your project? The decision you make can significantly impact performance, scalability, and development efficiency, so it’s essential to choose wisely. Both Flutter and .NET MAUI offer strong cross-platform development capabilities, but they have distinct differences when it comes to AI model support, …
LINQ (which stands for Language Integrated Query) is a library of collection manipulation methods that makes organizing and picking data out of collections much easier. LINQ can save a lot of time that would otherwise be spent writing complicated for or foreach loops. As with the nature of collections in programming, sometimes you will be working with gargantuan data sets and other times with smaller yet complicated collections.
I’m currently working on several cloud-native projects hosted on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) that use .NET for the API and React for the UI. These projects rely on GCP’s Identity-Aware Proxy (IAP) to handle authentication, which occurs before any requests reach the Application Load Balancer or the application itself.
While GCP’s IAP offers robust security benefits, configuring a .NET and React application to work seamlessly with it—both locally during development and when deployed to a Cloud Run instance as a Docker container—proved to be more challenging than I expected. The available documentation and resources for this setup are sparse and often fragmented, making it difficult to piece together a clear solution.
This blog post is my way of sharing the lessons I’ve learned along the way. By outlining the steps and solutions that worked for me, I hope to save others from the trial and error I experienced and provide a clearer path for integrating GCP IAP with .NET and React applications.
