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 ...

RFC: New Beta.ASP.net website
Oct 1110Before I worked for the ASP.NET team as I do now, I worked for MSDN. While I was over there, part of my time was spent working on the http://asp.net team. I led the charge to move the site over to Umbraco, and we did. Over the last two years, we have continually made improvements to the .NET (asp.net, silverlight.net, windowsclient.net) sites. In July, the MSDN team announced the release of a new Silverlight site, and today I'm happy to announce the Beta launch of a redesigned ASP.NET websit...

Microsoft dev stack vNext from Build
Sep 1115Unless you are living under a rock, you have probably heard that two days ago, at Build, Microsoft unveiled the new version of Windows, named Windows 8. Windows 8 This is revolutionary both from the consumers’ and developers’ perspectives. The UI is deeply based on the concept of the tiles of Windows Phone 7.5 “mango” and the Metro design language, and the API are now allowing applications to be written either in C#/C++ and the usual .NET/Win32, or using WinRT, basically an Object Oriented v...

Unix Fight! - Sed, Grep, Awk, Cut and Pulling Groups out of a PowerShell Regular Expression Capture
Aug 1101There's a wonderful old programmers joke I've told for years: You've got a problem, and you've decided to use regular expressions to solve it. Ok, now you've got two problems... A friend of mine was talking on a social network and said something like: That decade I spent in the Windows world stunted my growth. one teeny-tiny unix command grabbed certain values from an XML doc for me. Now, of course, I took this immediately as a personal challenge and rose up in a rit of fealous ...

Scott's Wonderful Twitter Favorites - Link Roundup 2
Jul 1121I realize that many (most) of you are not on Twitter. I am, however, on Twitter and I find it to be a joy. I have had a few complaints (just a few) because I tend to be random on Twitter. If you want only a stream of technical .NET resources, then don't follow me. However, if you want to follow the Whole Person, then please, join the fun. The most wonderful part of Twitter is just letting it flow over you. I tend to discover lots of interesting and cool stuff. So much so that I've started ...

Working with SSL at Development Time is easier with IISExpress
Apr 1121One of the demos in my Mix 11 talk An Overview of the MS Web Stack of Love was showing how IIS Express and Visual Studio SP1 (as well as WebMatrix) can make working with SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) a heck of a lot easier. If you've used Cassini before (that's the little built in Visual Web Developer Server) you've likely noticed that I doesn't support SSL. This makes working with real world sites a little challenging. If you want your Login pages and Account Management pages to use secure so...

Hanselminutes Podcast 261 - ASP.NET MVC 3 Tools Update with Phil Haack
Apr 1121Scott and Phil sit down to talk about the new ASP.NET MVC 3 Tools Update. Have you updated? That button up there will automatically check your system for SP1, as well as get you IIS Express, SQL Compact and basically the whole Web Stack of Love. That's the official install it all button. It's a great way to get a fresh machine ready to develop with. Don't worry, it won't install VS Express if you have VS already. That said, if you're paranoid, you can just download the MVC 3 installer. D...
