Until today’s Marten 8.12 release, Marten’s Async Daemon and a great deal of Wolverine‘s internals were both built around the venerable TPL DataFlow library.

And also, not that I have any pride about this, I don’t think we’re going to address … Continue reading Update on Wolverine 5 and CritterWatch→| The Shade Tree Developer

Earlier this week I did a live stream on the upcoming Wolverine 5.0 release where I just lightly touched on the concept for our planned SignalR integration with Wolverine. While there wasn’t that much to show yesterday, a big pull request just landed and I think the APIs and the approach has gelled enough that … Continue reading Sneak Peek at the SignalR Integration in Wolverine 5.0→| The Shade Tree Developer
