  • tags: ASP.NET 5, ASP.NET 6, Visual Studio 2015

Microsoft has recently released Visual Studio 2015 Preview for evaluation. Along with Visual Studio Microsoft has announced that it will open source complete ASP.NET stack and make it hostable on Linux as well as Mac. Microsoft has changed their web project significantly to make it work across open source platforms. Visual Studio 2015 preview brings a lot of enhancements in the editor as well as one of the significant components that ship with it is ASP.NET v5 and total change in project structure of web applications. In an effort to embrace open source they have made a lot of changes to to the project templates to utilize a whole bag of popular open source technologies like NPM, Grunt and Bower. Enabling the use of popular open source package managers saves Microsoft from duplicating and maintaining the rapid speed of changes and new developments that are happening on the web. For example instead of building their open Less to CSS compiler and keeping it updated, now they enable developers to use popular open source versions of the same.

Building responsive, fluid HTML5/CSS3 based websites are a rage these days delivering the best ROI for clients investing in building new web sites. Building a single website which adapts itself depending on the device screen size gives end users richer experiences. There are several ways of building responsive websites, one of the popular ways to to use an existing framework like Bootstrap which provide base scaffolding to quickly build responsive websites. In this blog post I am going to focus on how to integrate Bootstrap v3.0.X with Umbraco 7 to build a HTML5/CSS3 based fluid responsive website.

Create a Grid View with paging and sorting feature using ASP.NET MVC Razor and LINQ

  • by:
  • in:
  • tags: ASP.NET MVC, C-Sharp

Recently, I came across a requirement to create a Grid View with paging and column sorting feature. Since, I was using ASP.NET MVC there was no server side control such as Repeater, GridView or DataList which are available in ASP.NET. I googled but didn’t come across a good solution except few third-party paid ASP.NET MVC controls. So finally I decided to code my own Grid View with support for paging and column sorting with help from information available on blogs and forums. Even though I am showing the code in context of an example its extensible enough to reuse it elsewhere.

Setting up Umbraco 6 in Visual Studio 2012 for MVC development

  • by:
  • in:
  • tags: ASP.NET MVC, MVC, Umbraco 6

The starter packs provided on the Umbraco 6 default installation are good, but in case you need to build a complete new UI design as per your clients requirements then its far easier to start with a blank slate rather than try to mend an existing design to suit your requirements. If you want to move further and start developing forms etc. then its best to setup Umbraco 6 as a Visual Studio project so that you can debug your code. Umbraco provides two kinds of rendering engines for your pages, it can work in traditional Web Forms (its default engine) as well as it can user Razor with MVC. I personally find the HTML generated by MVC to be much clean, and better suited for building responsive html5 based applications. In this short blog post I am detailing the steps required to setup Umbraco 6 in Visual Studio 2012 as well as configure it to use MVC rendering engine. This blog post seeks to serve as a starting point for various other Umbraco development post that I plan to write.

  • tags: ASP.NET MVC, Razor, Umbraco 6

Sitemap is still considered one of the most important element of Website development. Google and Bing do provide an option to reference your website sitemap so that their bots can traverse through all the links. But, most developers or website administrators often forget to include it. In this blog post, I will explain the steps to create a Sitemap using Umbraco 6, ASP.NET Partial View and Razor code. This article assumes that you have Umbraco 6 configured to use Mvc as the default rendering engine so that MVC Partial Views can be used.

Bundle and Minify CSS/JS using ClientDependency in Umbraco 6 MVC/Razor

  • by:
  • in:
  • tags: ASP.NET MVC, ClientDependency, Razor, Umbraco 6

This is going to be a short post on how to configure style sheets and JavaScript's bundling and minification in Umbraco 6 using ClientDependency framework in MVC. The benefits of bundling and minification are obvious as they reduce the number of HTTP requests as well as decrease the download size of resources to the browser resulting in a faster browsing experience. While Microsoft has prebuilt its own libraries to enable these features, Umbraco uses the ClientDependency framework to achieve the same. You can read more about the client dependency framework from its codeplex website, its got quite a few configurations options and you and read more about them on its website. In this post I am just going to focus on getting an initial configuration up and running since there seems to be lack of clear documentation on the topic and it took me a while too to figure how to set it up correctly. This article assumes that you already have a installation of Umbraco 6 and have configured its rendering engine to use ASP.NET MVC for the pages.

  • in:
  • tags: .NET, ASP.NET MVC, Razor, Umbraco 6

I was recently faced with the challenge of implementing a navigation menu in Umbraco 6, it was very difficult to search creditable samples which worked in Umbraco 6. In this blog post, I will explain the steps to create a navigation menu using partial view as you can see on current Systenics website. Besides linking the pages, we also wanted to display a help text for each menu item. Umbraco 6 provides several ways to implement the same, you could either use Macros, but I have chosen to write a MVC Partial View. This article assumes that you have Umbraco 6 configured to use Mvc as the display engine so that MVC Partial Views can be used.

Andre Pierre

I contracted with Systenics about 6 months ago, in an effort to customize auction software for a new company I am launching in the US. The entire process was as smooth as could be. Their estimate for the project was reasonable, and very close to the final number. I would absolutely use this company again, and I have so much confidence in their ability to work with me, I even agreed to a support agreement with them long term. Their ability to communicate with me in the US was always very timely. They listened to my thoughts and ideas, and then suggested some changes, that made my software have even greater value. I cannot thank them enough, and would highly suggest their quality services to anyone. A completely satisfied customer!

Joe Lefebvre - Pharmabid, LLC

Systenics did a great job on our customization , they clearly understood the requirements and completed the task in a timely manner. They were very thorough in project discussions and made sure that we understood how the customization works and suggested improvements when required
