.NET 11 Preview 2: What's New for Developers (With Example)

Microsoft recently released .NET 11 Preview 2, bringing improvements across the runtime, SDK, libraries, and ASP.NET Core.

.NET 11 continues the evolution of Microsoft's cross-platform development platform used for building web apps, APIs, cloud services, and more.

Some key improvements include:

Runtime and performance optimizations

Updates to .NET libraries

Improvements in ASP.NET Core

Better tooling and developer productivity

Example: Minimal API in .NET
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
var app = builder.Build();

app.MapGet("/hello", () => "Hello from .NET 11!");

app.Run();

Run the project:

dotnet run

Open:

http://localhost:5000/hello

Output:

Hello from .NET 11!

Minimal APIs are a great way to build lightweight services quickly using the .NET platform.

If you're a .NET developer, trying preview releases is a great way to explore upcoming improvements and prepare your applications for future releases.
