looks great, can you also add F# content to this blog post?
DevDiv haven’t really been the greatest F# custodians, its not surprising as it was a MSR project thrown at them (C# devs) to maintain, of course its a second thought to them.
Boa tarde,eu gostaria por gentileza um feedback de alguem sobre o New Year – New C# Certification, eu concluà a coleção de desafios, e gostaria onde vai ficar disponibilizado a certificação.
Você pode encontrar o exame de certificação C# no freeCodeCamp: https://aka.ms/csharp/certification

Good afternoon, thank you for your kindness in answering me, I had already taken the certification exam in C# at freeCodCamp another opportunity and I obtained my certification, I was in doubt if this challenge would be related to another certification. But anyway, thank you for clarifying my doubts. Have a great 2024
is C# for gaming dying because of Unity3D dying? or will there be something with unreal engine?
