Deploying ASP.NET Web Applications

Ben Griswold — Wed, 07 Apr 2010 18:07:49 +0000

In this episode, Noah and I explain how to use Web Deployment Projects to deploy your web application. This screencast will get you up and running, but in a future screencast, we discuss more advanced topics like excluding files, swapping out the right config files per environment, and alternate solution configurations.

This screencast (and the next) are based on a write-up I did about ASP.NET Web Application deployment with Web Deployment Projects a while back. Multi-media knowledge sharing. You have to love it!

This is the first video hosted on Vimeo. What do you think?

ASP.NET Membership Provider Setup

In this screencast, Noah and I show you how to quickly get started with the ASP.NET Membership Provider. We’ll take you through basic features and setup and walk you through membership table creation with the ASP.NET SQL Server Wizard.

I’ve written about the ASP.NET Membership Provider and setup before. If you missed the post, this introductory video may be for you.

This is one of our first screencasts. If you have feedback, I’d love to hear it.

Managing .NET External Dependencies

Noah and I continue our screencast series by sharing our approach to managing external dependencies referenced within a .NET solution. This is another introductory episode but you might find a hidden gem in the short 4-minute clip.

ELMAH (Error Logging Modules and Handlers) is the external dependencies we are focusing on in the presentation. If you are not familiar with ELMAH, this episode may be worth your time.

Visual Studio 2008 Solution Setup

Ben Griswold — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 15:23:09 +0000

In this screencast, Noah and I demonstrate preferred practices around .NET solution setup, naming conventions and version control. I consider this an introductory video. If you’ve been around the block, you might want to skip this episode but if you’re a .NET/Visual Studio newbie, it may be worth a look.

This is one of our first screencasts. Actually it is the very first. If you have feedback, I’d love to hear it.

Technical Screencast Series

Ben Griswold — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 18:05:15 +0000

Noah and I have started to produce a series of technical screencasts. In the spirit of Dimecasts.net, we’re limiting each episode to ten minutes as we thought the development community could benefit from short, focused episodes. We’re just getting started, but I’m really pleased with our progress and I’m very excited about what’s to come.

The first three episodes are focused on the .NET stack (specifically around Visual Studio Solution Setup, Managing .NET External Dependencies and Working with the ASP.NET Membership Provider) but since we work for a mixed shop of .NET and Java development, I’m sure we’ll eventually introduce all sorts of topics.

We’re currently putting together a list of shows. If you have suggestions, please let me know. I plan to post the episodes to johnnycoder as they roll out and who knows? Maybe your screencast idea will show up next.
