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 ...

Installing and Running node.js applications within IIS on Windows - Are you mad?
Aug 1128Some folks on our team have been working on making node.js work awesomely on Windows. There's a few questions you might have. First, what's node.js? If you're not familiar with node.js, it's a new web programming toolkit that everyone's talking about. It's the one that makes you feel not hip if you don't know what it is. Like Ruby on Rails was a few years back. Folks called it Node and it's basically server-side JavaScript. The idea is that if you are doing a bunch of JavaScript on the cl...

Entity Framework Code First Migrations: Alpha - NuGet Package of the Week #10
Jul 1128Hot on the heels of my RFC blog post on product versioning, the Entity Framework team has released Entity Framework 4.1 Code First Migrations: August 2011 CTP. Cool. And it's July, too!

I showed early daily builds of EF Migrations at a few conferences recently, and encouraged folks to comment on the ADO...

A Simple Example That's Incredibly Complex
Jun 1130I was reading through my RSS feeds and email, just having returned from Paris and I was asked to take a look at a project from Microsoft Spain up on Codeplex. In reading the summary, it looks to be a sample application utilizing some high-end tricks from DDD (emphasis mine): This project is a sample implementation of most used patterns in Domain Oriented Architectures based on simple scenarios easy to understand (Customers, Orders, Bank Transfers, etc.).It is an Educational example, not a r...

Delegate feed privileges to other users on MyGet
Jun 1129One of the first features we had envisioned for MyGet and which seemed increasingly popular was the ability to provide other users a means of managing packages on another user’s feed. As of today, we’re proud to announce the following new features: Delegating feed privileges to other users – This allows you to make another MyGet user “co-admin” or “contributor” to a feed. This eases management of a private feed as that work can be spread across multiple people. Making private feeds privat...

Real World Examples
Jun 1102I just pushed the first video in our new series at Tekpub - Real World ASP.NET MVC 3. I’m putting my heart and soul into this one - it means a lot to me. It’s carved right from my direct experience working in various startups over the last 12 years (minus my time at MS). It’s another of our advanced titles - and I’m also letting a bit more of my opinion into it. We Need More Of This A long while back I had a chance to talk with Geoffrey Grosenbach (the PeepCode guy) while he was here on vac...
