Question

Greetings and long no see you all!

If I download a 6.7 "demo" project and select "ASP.NET CORE MVC & jQuery" / .Net Core 2.2, I get the Angular version.

Thanks!

Has anyone ever gotten the Xamerin Android app to wok on Live Player on a physical Android device?

I have been trying to figure this out for a few days and finally found this. There seems to still be similar issues as those mentioned in this article written in Dec 2017. Is Live Player just broken? It works fine for a simple hello world app and the Zero app runs fine in the emulators.... <a class="postlink" href="https://medium.com/volosoft/challenges-of-developing-xamarin-application-c2bfba6bbe49">https://medium.com/volosoft/challenges- ... bfba6bbe49</a>

I have not tried iOS yet.

Anyone?

Question

Ok, I know, I know that Blazor is basically in alpha, but it looks very interesting and it is moving fast ... EVERYTHING is moving fast. You guys must be watching this. What are you thinking a bit down the road? It might affect some of our decisions now.

For example if I was going to start a new project today, I might consider MVC since more code would be similar / reusable / portable to Blazor going forward.

There you have it. I have upset the apple cart, lol.

Greetings everyone!

I am just going to start looking at the mobile projects. I have no prior experience with smartphone development (but I will soon!) and I don't want to make any assumptions. I am ready to dive in but thought I would just get some feedback here that might save me some grief.

With the ASP.NET Zero project out of the box, what I need to achieve now is to have smartphone apps that send background notifications to the user/clients based on:

1.) A SQL query result on the backend. Something like a schedule / appointment alarm. 2.) When certain data us updated such as a new appointment is created by someone else for the user.

Any tips would be appreciated! My assumption that this is "Push" technology to the client, but now I will go do some exploring. :)

Thanks!!

Question

Greetings Team!

I am still relatively new to the workflow and all, including github, but after observing for a while, I was wondering….

You guys are busy and wearing so many hats, wouldn’t it save you a lot of trouble to have a FAQ? (beyond the on on the main page) Just a simple place with links that point to detailed information or a simple code snippet. Here are some of the questions I had and that I notice many others have. It would save you guys and new users a lot of time.

Here are some suggestions since you answer the same questions so many times...

  • Where is the documentation? (Not a bad place to start in case someone lands on the FAQ page.)
  • What are the differences between ASP.NET Zero template types? (maybe even a good third party opinion of SPA vs MPA)
  • What are the technologies involved that I need to learn? (This would be a HUGE time saver. As programmers we tend to get into our own little world and forget that someone may really like the end result of the solutions but not have all the skills required. No worries, learning is fun, lets do it! :-) What if one of us is suddenly into Python for example with no prior experience. We would know exactly what we want to do but not know how to get there. I came into this with a different kind of programming background so, where to start and get up to speed as quickly as possible? What do I need to learn? It took a while to sort it all out. There could be someone very brilliant who is actually starting off wanting to do a SAAS application.

Point a new user in the right direction with maybe a few links to some good tutorials.) Here is a least a start. Of course it would branch according to the two main versions. This might be a good general order. I was familiar with about half of this and of course, I will never stop learning!

  • Microsoft Visual Studio
  • C#
  • SQL Server
  • HTML 5, CSS, Javascript, Bootstrap
  • Entity Framework, ASP.Net Core
  • Npm
  • Git/Github
  • Angular (My choice… I liked the end result, user experience and speed) which of course includes a whole ecosystem of its own.
  • ABP (maybe most new users don’t realize the importance of this. It might actually be better to start with and APB template / walkthrough? In .NET Zero, it is still sometimes hard to understand where APB starts and EF begins for example…. It just takes a bit of time and experience.)
  • ASP.NET Zero
  • Xamerin for mobile apps not to mention the specific platforms involved there.

I am sure I missed a lot

  • How do I upgrade my project?
  • How do I publish my application? (I wanted to do this right away as a proof of concept to see what it was going to take to host something like this and to see what I needed to learn to get it done.)
    • General IIS
    • Azure walkthrough. For obvious reasons, Azure is pretty popular for VS users.

The list would be long and comprehensive and searchable. I am sure you guys already keep track of much of this. A bit of work up front but I think it would be a huge timesaver for everyone involved.

Question

Greetings!

Is 5.1 days or weeks away?

Thanks... just making a business decision based on that.

Question

Greetings and congratulations again on v5! As I was looking through some new docs, I had a look at the roadmap. Very interesting! I see, “RAD (Rapid Application Development) tooling.” What is the plan for this? Complete drag and drop solution that does all the work for us? Lol Ok … how about scaffolding based on some classes that model the DB? It would be quite a time saver if one could scaffold right up to and including even a basic app service? So much of that is redundant. Maybe even into the UI a bit? Nice!

C:>ZeroCreate myapp --template EverythingINeed

Also as for the “Calendar Module”, what are you thinking for this? Basic scheduling? That would be pretty nice too! :-)

Using Angular-CLI on Azure version 4.5.1 All it is the basic app with the phonebook implemented. I want to do a proof of concept of everything before I start building the main app, so hosting successfully with a real domain name on Azure is the next step for us. I have the API backend and the angular client app on Azure. (did not bother with the public site for now.)

Everything works very well in testing locally and on Azure, EXCEPT, there is a problem with multitenancy / domain / tenancy logins.

  • If I create a tenant called "test" I can impersonate that tenant from the host account and it appears that everything works as it should from test.mysite.com
  • If go to test.mysite.com I cannot login with the test user, however, I CAN login right there with the host admin account. (which is strange isn’t it?) The test user is activated.
  • I can go to fakesite.mysite.com which has never been created and I can login with the main host password.
  • If I login from these different hostnames, I get the full host account with tenants.

I have checked and double checked. Any ideas??

Thanks!!

I am evaluating which technologies to use for a new project and I am leaning towards the angular 2 version, HOWEVER, now we have ASP.NET Core 2 and Razor Pages. I assume there be a version implementing all of this, and if so what would be an ETA for that? So many options.

Thanks. Great work you guys!

Greetings! I was a developer for many years and just getting back into it, so I have some catching up to do, so do forgive me if this is something obvious I am missing.

I have been using Visual Studio 15.2 with ASP.Net Zero Core/MVC/Jquery and everything was going well. I upgraded to VS 15.3 and now I get several "Hangfire.Core" errors such as this when I compile. So, I guess there is obviously a dependency change/conflict. I need a bit more practice at resolving something like this. My guess is VS 15.3 updated some things that would have been best left alone for now.

That is one thing that makes me nervous seeing how everything now generally speaking with web applications is SO dependent on so many other technologies, it makes on wonder how easy it would be to break a production application, or should I say, how hard it would be to end up with an unstable app that is not easily upgradeable.
