    LINQPad 8 has a brand-new Excel interop engine. The exporter now emits native .xlsx files, accurately preserving datatypes, and creates Excel tables with AutoFilter. You can even create spreadsheets cell-by-cell, using the simplest-ever inbuilt API! linqpad.net/LINQPad8.aspx

    LINQPad 8 now has inbuilt support for @AvaloniaUI - just Dump your Avalonia controls and they will come to life in the output panel! Rapidly test and prototype - even develop entire UIs XAML-free, using fluent C#. linqpad.net/linqpad8.aspx

    I'm thinking of adding a DumpTell() extension method to LINQPad 8. Just like Dump, except that it uses C#'s [CallerArgumentExpression] to tell you what's being dumped. Thoughts?

    One week ago, @azure locked my account without warning or reason - after 12 years service. Customer support says my account is in good standing and they don't know why it was locked, but are unable(/unwilling?) to help. What am I supposed to do? I've contacted them over 20 times!
