🎉 Running On-Device LLMs in .NET MAUI 🎉 Apple Intelligence is an on-device, private LLM that costs $0 per token. It's not perfect (yet), but super easy to utilize thanks to Microsoft Maui Essentials AI. Check it out! 👇 codetraveler.io/2026/08/24/r…

Good question! The docs say that Android + Windows support is coming. Maybe @davidortinau could provide some more insight to its timeline? learn.microsoft.com/en-us/do…

Your LLM will eventually say something you really don't want it to say. In .NET we can now unit test for that 💯 `ViolenceEvaluator` scores every response 0-7, and my test fails above a 1. `Microsoft.Extensions.AI.Eval…` also catches Hate, Self-Harm + Prompt Injection before users ever see them. Full walkthrough 👇 codetraveler.io/2026/08/10/e…

Hello C# Friends!! Has anybody tried @cognee_ with @claude_code? It's pretty cool!👇
We gave @Claude Code a memory that survives every session. @TheCodeTraveler ran the same test twice on a real .NET API. Without cognee, a new session forgets every team rule. With our plugin, the agent answers from the knowledge graph. Full video: youtu.be/16386vE40js
