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.
- [Uncheck Radio Button in WPF](https://www.systenics.com/blogs/uncheck-radio-button-in-wpf/) - Recently I found myself in need of uncheck my selected Radio Button in WPF (Windows Presentation Framework). Unfortunately Radio Button has an unchecked event but it doesn’t fire. I thought of implementing uncheck onClick event, but even in this case it always givesChecked valuetrue after clicking on Radio Button. I started searching for examples in internet, but didn’t find an appropriate way to achieve this. One way I thought of styling the Checkbox to look like a Radio Button, but doing so is also had few issues. Then I thought of extending the Radio Button and use Dependency Property to achieve the same. This article describes the implementation of the Radio Button that supports uncheck and the way you can use it in your own applications. You can find the full implementation ofRadioButtonExtensionclass in the attached demo.

We faced several challenges in building this application and I thought it would be a good idea to blog the solution we created for the client. In this post we have tried to build upon the samples provided by Microsoft but explain the whole process so that its easier for others to understand and implement this platform. This blog post does not try to explain in detail how sync framework works, but tries to explain the deployment and creation of WCF based web service to sync between server and clients over the internet.

Unless the ClickOnce deployment is correctly signed Windows 8 Smart Screen Filter will not let the user install the application in Windows 8. In older versions of Windows, unsigned deployments show a Unverified Publisher message and discourage the users from installing your application. This application was meant to be distributed over the internet and it meant doom for the client who had invested so much in getting the application built, but was being stopped from rollout due to this issue. We were able to resolve the issue for the client with a bumpy ride. This blog post tries to describe the process that worked for us, hopefully it will serve as a guidance to all those who are hitting against a brick wall trying to resolve this issue with very little guidance from GoDaddy documentation.

- [Setting up Umbraco 7 in Visual Studio 2013 for MVC 4 development](https://www.systenics.com/blogs/setting-up-umbraco-7-in-visual-studio-2013-for-mvc-4-development/) - Umbraco 7 has been released, with a refreshed administrative interface making it one of the top CMS in the market. Our earlier blog post on Setting up Umbraco 6 in Visual Studio 2012 for MVC development was found useful by many readers so its time to write and updated blog post with Umbraco 7. The Umbraco team have fully embraced ASP.NET 4.5 as well as MVC for Umbraco 7, making it far more easier for us to build MVC based web sites.

- [Setting up Umbraco 6 in Visual Studio 2012 for MVC development](https://www.systenics.com/blogs/setting-up-umbraco-6-in-visual-studio-2012-for-mvc-development/) - 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.
