    My IDE of preference is now JetBrains Rider

    It's official, I prefer JetBrains Rider for my .NET development now. I'm tired of the sluggish pig that is Visual Studio. While I noticed an improvement in 17.7 the joy using Rider brings me is something I don't experience with Visual Studio. I dabbled in VS Code prior to Rider and see why so...

    Choosing the right technology for apps (2023)

    We've always had a lot of choices but it's harder now than ever, for me, to figure out what platform to use for a project. Take creating a new web site for example, and I am a DevExpress subscriber as well as Telerik, but only use DevExpress at this time. Trying to decide what to use... ASP.NET...

    Question Thinking about an open source project, how does this work?

    Hello all, I have a project idea and I am considering making it an open source project to enjoy and share programming with fellow devs with a common interest which this app serves. I understand I'd use something like GitHub but how can you make money on an open source project that would have...

    Question Is VS Code really better for ASP.NET Core Razor development?

    I'm new to ASP.NET Core Razor and I'm building out a nopCommerce site while also reading a book on Razor pages. I typically work in Visual Studio 2022 Professional but I also have VS Code (new to me for a few weeks now) and JetBrains Rider I'm also exploring as I'm licensed to use it. The other...

    Problem with the Nuget system

    I love nuget's but it has a few problems IMHO. You don't know what's in them, i.e. changes, etc. without finding the source and reviewing. Most of us, self included, probably blindly install updates and hope for the best The big issue I learned lately is Nuget will offer updates when your...

    Question Windows Forms (Winforms) or WPF? (2019)

    It's 2019 and Windows Forms continues to seem to dominate mainly I suppose for ease of use, drag and drop, no requirement for MVVM. Microsoft has easy fixes for high dpi support and I've tested this on a 4K monitor and it does seem fine. I do wish the default font size was not 8pt but that is...

    Question WPF vs. Winforms 2018

    One of those questions that are frequent, annual, and indecisive! When considering a new project in 2018 what platform are you choosing for Windows and why? WPF is the current and future platform, some say, yet Winforms continues to grow by 3rd party vendors (I use Developer Express) as if WPF...

    public static readonly OR public readonly static???

    I tell ya, for a language that has such strict formatting such as the braces issue why the heck can't they standardize whether static becomes before or after the scope? I can have both public static readonly PropertyName and public readonly static PropertyName. Sloppy!

    Question Prevent a new class from getting the folder name in the Namespace

    When I create a new class in C# it's appending the folder name to the Namespace. For example my project's namespace is Foo. I have a folder named Blah. If I add a new class (file) to the Blah folder the namespace is created as Foo.Blah. How can I turn this off so only my project namespace...

    New Syntax Highlighter installed to forum

If you look at the toolbar above this message editor you'll see a "c#" button on the far right. Click it and then enter "c#" (no quotes) to indicate you want...

    Question Why doesn't C# automatically add a close } when { is typed?

    So I'm creating a few properties such as: public string MyName { Why when I type that { isn't a } placed for me automatically? It's crazy that I have to enter enter } and then up arrow to code.

    Question Why can I access a class scoped as INTERNAL from another assembly?

    Hello, I'm not sure if this is a Mono bug (MonoTouch 4.0.0 with MonoDevelop 2.4.2) but I have a class library and in that class library I have a class named "Logger" which is used to write error data to a file. I have this class scoped as INTERNAL. From my main app I have the using statement...
