Congratulations? Trading in your Tony Lamas and your Stetson? I would have suspected you of being a seaman. The Horizon[^] looks like a good ship.

My push in general is for WebAPI2/ReST endpoints with browser-based functionality, formerly leveraging Angular but now looking at alternatives, like Vue.js. I'm half tempted to say "screw these frameworks" and roll my own in vanilla, but then I realized that's exactly why there are so many frameworks now.
I've been trying to push for a microservice architecture for a bit, though, and that's a hard slog in some federal circles.
It also works a lot better on the thin clients that we're seeing all over the place.

Go for micro-services leading to a react front end. No idea what any of that means but it's what the hip kids are all talking about.
Best Practices for Building a Microservice Architecture | Vinay Sahni[^]
Some light reading to head you in the right direction.
I like react (toolset) but others prefer angular (framework) for the presentation layer. It's all (kinda) javascript and is a learning curve. We use pluralsight subscriptions to educate and inform and youtube is your friend.
A very simplistic view - you'd need to flesh that out but it is the way to go, especially micro-services.
Someone else mentioned the new razor pages - they also look pretty exciting.
Enjoy!

I still need full .NET support. Core is getting close, and looking good. But then again, there's the whole UI thing too.

My old Win7 installation has been crying for years now. I never activated it. As far as I can tell, I'm being punished by being denied access to updates, not allowing a desktop background image and shaming me (yawn) by writing 'unregistered' into the corners of the desktop.
This way I was spared from Win8, Win10 or any other junk. When Win7 finally outlives its usefulness one day, I will kiss Mickeysoft goodbye.

Yes, faced the same problem. I think it was update 1803 that required 5 more GB of space on the C: drive which was on 28 GB. How can Microsoft Windows require so much space????? Of course they have crap on their like Mail, which takes a lot of space, that you cannot delete. The Microsoft Windows and Office teams are really bad.

and Cortana which can not be terminated or uninstalled.

Yes that is definitely a pretty bad bug. It really irritates me also.

Actually, if you just wash (and thoroughly rinse) you PC it will be fine about avoiding updates.

It certainly won't keep it from trying however.
[Edit]
If the purpose is to avoid installing updates all the time, those who recommend Linux have clearly not spent a lot of time with it.
If I was to compare the total bandwidth used for updates in a month by a single Linux system with a single Windows system - Linux is the biggest hog, by far.
This is one of my VM hosts I have here at home. This one has nothing but Linux guests:

I like to tinker with Linux. I have a number of versions of CentOS, Debian, Elementary, Fedora, Korora, Linux Lite, Mageia, Manjaro, Mint, OpenSUSE, Oracle Linux, RHEL, SLES, SolydXK, Ubuntu, ZorinOS and a few lesser-known distributions.
I can say with confidence they're all bandwidth hogs when it comes to updates.

I needed an algorithm for generating the combinations of a list, in 2, 3, and 4 element quantities, so I google - and it throws up a question on SlackExchange which points to an article here: Permutations, Combinations, and Variations using C# Generics[^]
Which may have been written in 2008, but slotted right in (as a C# DLL project) and worked right out of the box. Nice one!
That's a half day to a day saved in three lines of code ... bonus!

The sad conclusion is that Google's index of CP is so much poorer than StackExchange's.
Would you have found it, had it not been for the detour through SE?
