Open source adventures with... wait for it... Microsoft
Mar 1231Last week, Microsoft announced that it was going to open source the rest of the ASP.NET MVC Web stack. The core MVC framework has been open source for a long time now, but the other pieces around it are also now out in the wild. Not only that, but it's not what I call "big bang" open source, where you release the source with each version. No, they're actually committing in real time to a public repository. They're also taking contributions where it makes sense. If that weren't exciting enoug...

ASP.NET MVC Now Accepting Pull Requests
Mar 1229Changing a big organizations is a slow endeavor. But when people are passionate and persistent, change does happen. Three years ago, the ASP.NET MVC source code was released under an open source license. But at the time, the team could not accept any code contributions. In my blog post talking about that release, I said the following (emphasis added): Personally (and this is totally my own opinion), I’d like to reach the point where we could accept patches. There are many hurdles in the w...

A Look Back at Mix 11
Apr 1116Another Spring approaches and once again, another Mix is over. This year at Mix, my team announced the release of the ASP.NET MVC 3 Tools Update at Mix, which I blogged about recently. Working on this release as well as NuGet has kept me intensely busy since we released ASP.NET MVC 3 RTM only this past January. Hopefully now, my team and I can take a moment to breath as we start making big plans for ASP.NET MVC 4. It’s interesting to me to think that the version number for ASP.NET MVC is qui...

The MVC3 special sauce in POP Forums
Jan 1124I was chatting with a friend about why, as much as I would rather not rewrite POP Forums for the bazillionth time, it has actually been a lot of fun, and smooth sailing on MVC. If you haven't been playing along at home, POP Forums is the forum app that I've been maintaining now since the days of ASP.old, in sites like CoasterBuzz. In late 2009, I decided I'd rewrite it from the ground up as an MVC app, but it was slow going after the birth of my child. But when I did find time to write code, e...

The Weekly Source Code 57 -Controlling an Eagletron TrackerPod with C# 4, ASP.NET MVC and jQuery
Nov 1022I have a 42 HDTV in Seattle that's hooked up all the time as an Embodied Social Proxy. It's a portal between the Microsoft Redmond campus and my house here in Oregon. I've blogged about Embodied Social Proxies before as well as shot video of one for Channel 9. It's called the HanselCart around work, although recently it's stopped being a cart and now it's a whole office that folks in Building 42 can drop by and see me, er, the Virtual Me. One of the things that hasn't been 100% smooth is t...

A Better ASP.NET MVC Mobile Device Capabilities ViewEngine
Nov 1017In March of 2009 I spoke at Mix 09, Microsoft's Web Conference and presented a number of ASP.NET MVC features. I extended the NerdDinner Sample with a naive implementation of what I called a MobileCapableWebFormViewEngine. Here's the basic implementation. Don't use this, it's broken. public class MobileCapableWebFormViewEngine : WebFormViewEngine{ public override ViewEngineResult FindView(ControllerContext controllerContext, string viewName, string masterName, bool useCache) { ViewEngineRes...
