Touch Friendly Design–Making Touchable Targets(professionalaspnet.com)

submitted by docluvdocluv(1575) 6 months, 16 days ago

By this I want to call attention to the way we design modern web and native mobile applications, which tends to retain aspects common to legacy web sites. read more...

Quite simply, it allows you to: Create type amendments by subclassing Amendment<,> to describe what changes you want to make Add attributes to your types indicating which types to amend and what amendments to apply Amend properties by either adding new properties or modifying the logic of existing properties Amend methods by either adding new methods or modifying the logic of existing methods Amend constructors by either adding new constructors or modifying the logic of existing constructors Implement interfaces directly on a type leveraging existing properties/methods, adding new properties/methods, and allowing Afterthought to automatically implement everything else Configure your project to call Afterthought as a post-build step to apply the changes read more...
