Merge Conflict is a weekly discussion with Frank and James on all things development, technology, & more. After years of being friends, Frank and James finally decided to sit down and start a podcast about their lives as mobile developers using C#, Xamarin, and .NET MAUI. Much more than just another mobile development podcast, Merge Conflict, reaches all areas of development including desktop, server, and of course mobile. They also cover fun things happening in the world of technology and gaming and whatever else happens to be on Frank's and James' minds.

Customer Reviews
Excellent and inspiring podcast
First time I listen to these wonderful guys podcast, was episode 92 or something...
I enjoyed a couple of episodes, and decided to listen to all the old ones starting with #1 (and I listen to episode 87 when writing this review) - “why did it do that?”, you may ask.
Just because these two guys are so good listen to, when “discussing” different interesting topics, which I learn from every time. And also because they have different views on some stuff, so that I get information helping me to make a decision that I feel good with.
I have learned from this podcast, that what might be the trend at the moment, is OK to be a little skeptical about.
Love the shows, and will keep listen to these guys👍
