Being part of a community means being inspired by other folks’ work to learn, get better, and add our value back in. When I read Jeremy Miller’s Oakton post about running development-time commands, I was inspired to contribute. Being hosted...
Razor is a sharp user interface language, but it can also cut into our sensibilities and aesthetic code choices. ASP.NET ships with many HTML helpers to help reduce the amount of code we write to ship user interfaces, and for...
The great thing about ASP.NET has generally been its “get stuff done” attitude, with many defaults and conventions set for us right out of the box. Sane defaults mean we can be productive and build apps quickly without requiring a...
Programming is easy, but math can be hard at times. In this post, we’ll write some C# code that will help us determine the next number in an interval sequence.
It is always nice to learn something new, regardless of our experience. In this short but very cool post, we’ll learn more about a little known feature having to do with Action, Func, and Predicate in .NET.
By default, ASP.NET and IIS protect us from large requests by putting hard limits on the transmitted size. IIS buffers files in our server’s memory before passing the byte array to ASP.NET. IIS’ default limit is 4MB and ASP.NET Core...
The Language Integrated Query (LINQ) syntax is arguably one of the most powerful features of .NET. The ability to express queries over different data sources declaratively has made the .NET ecosystem more productive.
The internet has fundamentally changed the majority of the applications we develop. Rarely is an application designed to exist in isolation. Instead, most apps rely on other networked apps to retrieve and store information. In this post, we’ll explore the...
F# is the .NET language’s premier functional language. The syntax can be more concise than C#, which can arguably reduce overall errors. Regardless, we should still be writing tests as all good programmers should. In this post, we’ll be walking...
I like to think I’m a loyal member of the CLI TILL I DIE team. I’m a macOS user, so naturally, I use a combination of iTerm2 and Oh-My-Zsh.
