Building an AI-Powered Community Platform with Blazor, .NET MAUI, Aspire, and Azure AI Foundry

Augustine Correa

Bethuya is an AI-powered Community Platform built with Blazor, .NET MAUI, .NET Aspire, and Azure AI Foundry. Inspired by the challenges of running real-world developer communities, it introduces a Unified Participation Ledger that goes beyond attendance to capture volunteering, mentoring, speaking, organizing, and learning activities. In this session, we'll explore how the modern .NET stack enables a single platform spanning web, mobile, distributed services, and AI-powered experiences. We'll cover architectural decisions, service orchestration with Aspire, cross-platform experiences with MAUI, role-aware interfaces with Blazor, and AI-enabled features powered by Azure AI Foundry. Attendees will leave with practical guidance for building cloud-native, AI-powered applications with .NET and lessons learned from building a production community platform.
