What's been happening since the last Blashing - Blazing Story update and the original Beginning of Blashing, well it was just dependency updates from Dependabot then in June 2025 I updated it to .NET 9. A few months later in Oct I moved a majority of the work into a Shared Project #211 so I could re-use it in either a Client or Server app. Saves a lot of duplication.

One fantastic thing about Dashing / Smashing is the Widget system. I started a Discussion #213 and from the list I decided on a few I wanted to work on

Widgets

  • Server Status Widget
  • Circle CI Build Status
  • Circle CI (List)

Server Status Widget

Server Status Squares Server Status Squares

Circle CI Build Status

Then in Nov 2025 I updated Blashing to .NET 10.

Lots more work to get them into a stable state, but it's a good start, and the most likely I'd want to use.
