Introducing NHaml - An ASP.NET MVC View Engine(andrewpeters.net)

submitted by AndrewPeters(1170) 4 years, 5 months ago

NHaml (pronounced enamel) is a pure .NET implementation of the popular Rails Haml view engine. From the Haml website: “Haml is a markup language that‘s used to cleanly and simply describe the XHTML of any web document, without the use of inline code. Haml functions as a replacement for inline page templating systems such as PHP, ERB, and ASP. However, Haml avoids the need for explicitly coding XHTML into the template, because it is actually an abstract description of the XHTML, with some code to generate dynamic content.” In other words, NHaml is an external DSL for XHTML. It’s primary qualities are it’s simplicity, terseness, performance and that it outputs nicely formatted XHTML. Additionally, the NHaml view engine provides support for Rails style layouts and partials. read more...

BigVisibleCruise - Oversized Build Radiator for CruiseControl(code.google.com)

submitted by cr_chapman(55) 4 years, 5 months ago

This project provides a "Big Visible Chart" or "Information Radiator" for the various Cruise Control implementations (Java, .Net, .rb). Big Visible Cruise was created as an alternative (or an addition to) the information radiators that are typically used for continuous integration. While I certainly love Nabaztag, Orbs, and Lava Lamps - there is a place for a simple big screen of information that shows the status of your build or builds. The sweet spot for BVC is a team room or on a monitor that is visible to multiple individuals. I'm currently using BVC with CCTray to provide a good visual with good auditory feedback of the build status. read more...

Software development carries a professional not social responsibility(blog.chapmanconsulting.ca)

submitted by cr_chapman(55) 4 years, 5 months ago

What does it mean to be "ALT.NET"? For some, it means taking responsibility for your profession - for others, it means taking responsibility for much more. What began as a fun exercise in coming up with Latin mottos for the group has prompted some serious introspection. Read on for why I think calling programming a social responsibility is a step in the wrong direction. read more...
