While the development server in Visual Studio 2010 is great for most work, it does have 1 shortcoming in that if you start adding content types that are not part of the base set of known Mime types built in, you won’t affect the proper header response that is emitted to the client/browser. The rest of the article shares more and how to fix this problem.

Nuget is really starting to show how much the .Net community needed a central repository for libraries. What are the odds of stumbling on the MimeHelper library without it?

As for MimeHelper itself, it's nice that it allows for new mime types to be easily configured in the web.config file. I don't have any use for it myself at the moment but I'll be sure to add it to my list of tools.

It looks like that the MimeHelper NuGet package works only in Classic mode of IIS. With most new servers working in integrated mode, this will be of limited use.
