What’s new in ASP.NET MVC 4: slides and demo are now online
Jan 1217Today I had my first live webcast for Microsoft Belgium, about the new features released with ASP.NET MVC 4 at Build in September. There were around 80+ people registered and around 50 people attending, and almost nobody left before the end of the webcast, so I guess it pretty well. We also are aware there were some glitches in the audio during the async part of the webcast: the audio was also recorded directly from the mic, so the video that will be published in the next week on Channel9 wi...

Scott Hanselman's 2011 Ultimate Developer and Power Users Tool List for Windows
Dec 1101Everyone collects utilities, and most folks have a list of a few that they feel are indispensable. Here's mine. Each has a distinct purpose, and I probably touch each at least a few times a week. For me, util means utilitarian and it means don't clutter my tray. If it saves me time, and seamlessly integrates with my life, it's the bomb. Many/most are free some aren't. Those that aren't free are very likely worth your 30-day trial, and perhaps your money. Here are most of the contents of my ...

Writing a Recipe for ASP.NET MVC 4 Developer Preview
Sep 1122NOTE: This blog post covers features in a pre-release product, ASP.NET MVC 4 Developer Preview. You’ll see we call out those two words a lot to cover our butt. The specifics about the feature will change and this post will become out-dated. You’ve been warned. All good recipes call for a significant amount of garlic. Introduction Last week I spoke at the //BUILD conference on building mobile web applications with ASP.NET MVC 4. In the talk, I demonstrated a recipe I wrote that automates...

Summer time learning: Getting started with Node.js
Aug 1131It is now a consolidate tradition for me to publish, during summer time, a list of the books I liked reading or that I bought and are sitting on my shelves (or, lately, more and more on my iPad) waiting to be read. In the last years these lists contained .NET and development methodologies books and web development books (jQuery and JavaScript). The topics of the book in this year’s list are a bit different. There will still be a bit of web development on .NET, but due to the nature of the pr...

Windows Azure Accelerator for Web Roles
Jul 1113One of the questions I often get around Windows Azure is: “Is Windows Azure interesting for me?”. It’s a tough one, because most of the time when someone asks that question they currently already have a server somewhere that hosts 100 websites. In the full-fledged Windows Azure model, that would mean 100 x 2 (we want the SLA) = 200 Windows Azure instances. And a stroke at the end of the month when the bill arrives. Microsoft’s DPE team have released something very interesting for those situati...

Pushing Code to NuGet
May 1106I kicked up some dust yesterday when I suggested that pushing packages to Nuget could be a bit easier. Many retorts of “how could it possibly be simpler!?!?!?!” (I never grow tired of condescension - it makes me write posts :) and I thought to myself: “there has to be other people in my position”. So here it is - the Simple Guide To Pushing Code to Nuget - mostly for me to remember how to do it, but if you find it helpful yay! NuGet.exe The first thing you’ll need is NuGet.exe. It’s a pa...

Building a Nuget Server with gold plating
Apr 1105Last week, Phil Haack wrote a post on how to build a NuGet Server. A NuGet server is really easy to build because 90% of the work is done by running a NuGet command. Just for fun, I decided to add some extra functionality to my NuGet Server such as a package upload form and a formatted list of packages. In preparing my NuGet server, I followed Phil’s direction to a tee except for the fact that I used a “empty MVC 3 app with Razor support” instead of using a “ASP.NET Empty Web Application”. ...

How To Find Out Which NuGet Packages Depend on Yours
Feb 1124Renaming a package ID is a potentially destructive action and one we don’t recommend doing. Why? Well if any other packages depend on your package, you’ve effectively broken them if you change your package ID. For example, today I wanted to rename a poorly named package, MicrosoftWebMvc, to Mvc2Futures. What I ended up doing is recreating the same package with the new ID and uploading it. That way existing packages that depend on MicrosoftWebMvc aren’t broken. But now, I have two packages ...
