Windows 8.1 and Visual Studio 2013

I had a great time presenting at the GSP Developers Guild last night.  Thanks to everyone for letting me go a little long on the presentation!  There was so much to cover and I still didn’t show everything that is new and exciting.

Thanks to everyone for coming out….

Windows 8 – Cage Match – XAML vs. HTML

I had a great time presenting with Brian Hitney over Windows 8 at the Charlotte ALT.NET user group this past Tuesday night.  We had some very good discussions concerning developing applications using XAML and HTML.

Thanks to all who came out!

BrightScript extension for Visual Studio 2012

I am happy to announce that I have finally updated my extension for BrightScript.  It previously only supported Visual Studio 2010 but I have finally had enough time to make the modifications and get it working for Visual Studio 2012.

 

You can get it here or through Visual Studio using Tools | Extensions and Updates.  Then all you need to do is simply do a search online for “BrightScript”.

For those of you who develop for the Roku or BrightSign devices, here is what your code will look like now in Visual Studio:

 

 

Hope this helps…

Mastering Ninject for Dependency Injection

I am happy to announce that the book, Mastering Ninject for Dependency Injection has been published.  I worked on the project as a technical reviewer and had a lot of fun.

If you are interest in a great reference for Dependency Injection (DI), this is a good one.  It goes deep for those of you who really want to take full advantage of a mature DI container.

I would like to thank Packt Publishing for reaching out to work on this title.
