Use when building .NET 10 or C# 14 applications; when using minimal APIs, modular monolith patterns, or feature folders; when implementing HTTP resilience, Options pattern, Channels, or validation; when seeing outdated patterns like old extension method syntax

.NET 10 & C# 14 Best Practices

.NET 10 (LTS, Nov 2025) with C# 14. Covers minimal APIs, not MVC.

Quick Start

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web">
  <PropertyGroup>
    <TargetFramework>net10.0</TargetFramework>
    <LangVersion>14</LangVersion>
    <Nullable>enable</Nullable>
  </PropertyGroup>
</Project>
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

// Core services
builder.Services.AddValidation();
builder.Services.AddProblemDetails();
builder.Services.AddOpenApi();

// Security
builder.Services.AddAuthentication().AddJwtBearer();
builder.Services.AddAuthorization();
builder.Services.AddRateLimiter(opts => { /* see security.md */ });

// Infrastructure
builder.Services.AddHealthChecks();
builder.Services.AddOutputCache();

// Modules
builder.Services.AddUsersModule();

var app = builder.Build();

// Middleware (ORDER MATTERS - see security.md)
app.UseExceptionHandler();
app.UseHttpsRedirection();
app.UseCors();
app.UseRateLimiter();
app.UseAuthentication();
app.UseAuthorization();
app.UseOutputCache();

app.MapOpenApi();
app.MapHealthChecks("/health");
app.MapUsersEndpoints();
app.Run();

Decision Flowcharts

Result vs Exception

digraph {
    "Error type?" [shape=diamond];
    "Expected?" [shape=diamond];
    "Result<T>/ErrorOr" [shape=box];
    "Exception" [shape=box];
    "Error type?" -> "Expected?" [label="domain"];
    "Error type?" -> "Exception" [label="infrastructure"];
    "Expected?" -> "Result<T>/ErrorOr" [label="yes"];
    "Expected?" -> "Exception" [label="no"];
}

IOptions Selection

digraph {
    "Runtime changes?" [shape=diamond];
    "Per-request?" [shape=diamond];
    "IOptions<T>" [shape=box];
    "IOptionsSnapshot<T>" [shape=box];
    "IOptionsMonitor<T>" [shape=box];
    "Runtime changes?" -> "IOptions<T>" [label="no"];
    "Runtime changes?" -> "Per-request?" [label="yes"];
    "Per-request?" -> "IOptionsSnapshot<T>" [label="yes"];
    "Per-request?" -> "IOptionsMonitor<T>" [label="no"];
}

Channel Type

digraph {
    "Trust producer?" [shape=diamond];
    "Can drop?" [shape=diamond];
    "Bounded+Wait" [shape=box,style=filled,fillcolor=lightgreen];
    "Bounded+Drop" [shape=box];
    "Unbounded" [shape=box];
    "Trust producer?" -> "Unbounded" [label="yes"];
    "Trust producer?" -> "Can drop?" [label="no"];
    "Can drop?" -> "Bounded+Drop" [label="yes"];
    "Can drop?" -> "Bounded+Wait" [label="no"];
}

Key Patterns Summary

C# 14 Extension Blocks

extension<T>(IEnumerable<T> source)
{
    public bool IsEmpty => !source.Any();
}

.NET 10 Built-in Validation

builder.Services.AddValidation();
app.MapPost("/users", (UserDto dto) => TypedResults.Ok(dto));

TypedResults (Always Use)

app.MapGet("/users/{id}", async (int id, IUserService svc) =>
    await svc.GetAsync(id) is { } user
        ? TypedResults.Ok(user)
        : TypedResults.NotFound());

Module Pattern

public static class UsersModule
{
    public static IServiceCollection AddUsersModule(this IServiceCollection s) => s
        .AddScoped<IUserService, UserService>();

    public static IEndpointRouteBuilder MapUsersEndpoints(this IEndpointRouteBuilder app)
    {
        var g = app.MapGroup("/api/users").WithTags("Users");
        g.MapGet("/{id}", GetUser.Handle);
        return app;
    }
}

HTTP Resilience

builder.Services.AddHttpClient<IApi, ApiClient>()
    .AddStandardResilienceHandler();

Error Handling (RFC 9457)

builder.Services.AddProblemDetails();
app.UseExceptionHandler();
app.UseStatusCodePages();

MANDATORY Patterns (Always Use These)
