Building Real-World Applications with Dapr: A Startup Developer's Journey
summary
Builds a .NET SaaS on Azure using Dapr for local/cloud parity, actor-based user registration and monthly invoicing, and workflows for payment retries; uses the Dapr .NET SDK maintainer codebase, the SendGrid binding to send templated emails, Syncfusion mail merge to generate PDFs stored via Azure Blob (and served from Bunny CDN), and the new schedule API 1.15 to run monthly jobs. Reports fewer environment-specific bugs, saves hosting costs via opaque app IDs and autoscaling, and leverages mTLS and pluggable discovery for cross-cloud deployments (Azure, AKS, Fargate).
