6 Tools To Be An Effective Web Developer(geekdaily.net)

submitted by justinbezanson(1555) 3 years, 2 months ago

There has always been and probably always will be feuds over what is the best platform but what I want to show you is that those arguments are mostly irrelevant. Regardless of what platform you choose to develop on there are most of the same tools available in one form or another. The common components, for me anyway, that help me produce high quality code faster and is easier to maintain are a good IDE, easy to use unit testing and mocking frameworks, an ORM, a MVC framework, and a good JavaScript library. read more...

This interest stems from the core role interfaces play in some pretty hot topics, including: dependency injection, unit testing and mocking (to name a few). read more...

submitted by beckelmw(2755) 3 years, 4 months ago

Are you tired of going to DotNetKicks and finding the same stories on the front page for days in a row? Trust me, there is some great content out there that never makes the front page. You just have to look a little deeper. When you do, you can help put some of that great new content in front of the masses.
