Sending Requests with Request Payload Instead of Form Data =========================================================== As a web developer, understanding the nuances of HTTP requests can be challenging. Recently, we encountered a scenario where sending a request with form data didn’t work as expected. In this article, we’ll delve into the differences between form data and request payload, explore the characteristics of request payload, and provide guidance on how to send requests with request payload correctly.

Grouping by Multiple Criteria in LINQ Using Bitmasks ===================================================== In this article, we will explore how to group a collection of objects using multiple criteria. We will use the LINQ (Language Integrated Query) library to achieve this and demonstrate its capabilities with a practical example. We are given a model with properties that need to be grouped based on their values, excluding zero or empty values. The goal is to generate all possible combinations of these properties while maintaining the same pattern.
