When you’re starting a new project and thinking about what you’re going to use in your application, what factors do you consider? Sometimes this depends on what your role is, so a develop will jump straight in with just use X coding language and continue on their way. Whereas other might want to play with whatever the new and latest technology is. Then there is people like myself that likes to think about the whole picture, and so here are some of the key factors I consider when building a new application.

How to get a PDF from Server Side to Client Side?
So you generate a PDF in the C# code or any back end code, but need to send it back to the JavaScript doing the AJAX request. The trouble is how you return a file back to the client side and is the same problem I faced. There are loads of methods of how to do this that I have seen on the line, but these are the ways I found worked with C#.NET and JavaScript.
Resharper DotCover Analyse for Visual Studio Team Services
Do you use Visual Studio Team Services (VSTS) for Builds and/or Releases? Do you use Resharper DotCover? Do you want to use them together? Then boy do I have an extension for you!
That might be a corny introduction, but it is exactly what I have here.
Keeping an images ratio on resize in JavaScript
A little tricky task was given to the team I am working in, to keep an image at its aspect ratio. However the catch is that it needs to be able to go as large as it can to fill the screen at all times, while the user can resize the screen and keeping theContinueContinue reading “Keeping an images ratio on resize in JavaScript”
How to Iterate multiple folders/files in Gulp
When searching for a method to loop not just the first level of files and folders, but also all the levels below. Asking to much I wanted the files name, its folder location and also the files content.

Password Regex with optional Special Characters Symbols
After number of failed attempts I have gotten to the Regex that validates your password with optional symbols. This example will validate it has 1 lowercase letter, 1 uppercase letter, 1 number and then the symbols are optional, but it also validates the symbols added in are acceptable.
Visual Studio Team Services Gulp Task Setup
The Visual Studio Team Services Gulp task is a free pre-built module in the VSTS build and release section that runs, yes you guessed it, gulp tasks. As much as it is very good and the directions on use are good, but one part I found hard was how to pass the arguments into the task. Therefore instead of just showing how to do this, I will also give some general information on the use as well.
What is in a projects builds and releases
While working with other companies I have seen multiple builds and releases, plus also reading books like ‘Continuous Delivery: Reliable Software Releases through Build, Test, and Deployment Automation’. Through this I have learnt more and more about what should really be in the builds and releases of code applications. I would like to describe how I think they should both be used to create a scalable, reliable and repeatable process to bring confidence to your projects.
