ASP.NET MVC 4 Beta
Feb 1220A few days ago we released the ASP.NET MVC 4 Beta. This is a significant release that brings with it a bunch of great new features and capabilities. The ASP.NET MVC 4 Beta release works with VS 2010 and .NET 4.0, and is side-by-side compatible with prior releases of ASP.NET MVC (meaning you can safely install it and not worry about it impacting your existing apps built with earlier releases). It supports a “go-live” license that allows you to build and deploy production apps with it. Click ...

Repaving your PC: the easier way
Nov 1128It"s been a while since I had to repave my laptop. I have a Windows Home Server (WHS) at home which images my PC almost daily and allows restoring it to a given point in time in less than 30 minutes. Which is awesome! And which is how I usually restore my PC into a stable state. Over the past year some hardware changes have been made of which the most noteworthy is the replacement of the existing hard drive with an SSD. A great addition, and it was easy to restore as well: swap the disks and r...

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.

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...

Bin Deploying ASP.NET MVC 3
May 1126When you build an ASP.NET MVC 3 application and are ready to deploy it to your hosting provider, there are a set of assemblies you’ll need to include with your application for it to run properly, unless they are already installed in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC) on the server. In previous versions of ASP.NET MVC, this set of assemblies was rather small. In fact, it was only one assembly, System.Web.Mvc.dll, though in the case of ASP.NET MVC 1.0, if you didn’t have SP1 of .NET 3.5 installed...

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...
