In this episode we take a look at doing production debugging with the OzCode Production Debugger and see how it can be used to debug production problems as they occur.
Azure Functions using Bearer token is clumsy. For some auth providers, you can enable App Service Authentication in the Azure Portal but that only works for the deployed version of your app which makes testing locally difficult and clumsy.
In this episode, we look at the AzureFunctions.OidcAuthentication library which makes it easy to validate JWT Tokens from a variety of OIDC providers like Auth0, Azure AD B2C, and Okta.

In this episode we’re going to have another look at code snippets, but this time in Visual Studio 2019.
Snippets are a great way to tackle repetitive coding tasks, and you can use them creatively to implement large blocks of code quickly, removing friction from the process of building out features.
You can visit the Microsoft Docs site to navigate some of the template functions and the schema reference here: https://docs.microsoft.com/visualstudio/ide/walkthrough-creating-a-code-snippet?view=vs-2019
Snippets let you build out small, expressive, macros to rapidly add content to your files in Visual Studio Code. In this video we’ll cover how to add your own snippets for your project.
