JsFiddle
“JsFiddle is a playground for web developers, a tool which may be used in many ways. One can use it as an online editor for snippets build from HTML, CSS and JavaScript. The code can then be shared with others, embedded on a blog, etc. Using this approach, JavaScript developers can very easily isolate bugs. We aim to support all actively developed frameworks – it helps with testing compatibility.“
Javascript Beautifier
This is a pretty nifty tool that takes minified javascript and makes it pretty again.
Agile whitepapers, etc from 21apps
This looks like a pretty good collection of resources for things pertaining to XP (Agile, TDD, CI, etc). What’s extra nice about this is the focus on these things in light of Sharepoint. I’ll be doing Sharepoint development with my new job, so this could be very useful for me.
Git in colour
This is a way you can use colors in Git without including a third party utility. Pretty nifty.
Hanselman’d – Simplify your VS toolbar
I’m a big fan of personalizing VS to improve the user experience. It’s so easy to get information overload in VS if you aren’t careful.
W3Fools
This is an interesting website aimed at correcting the misinformation that is shared by w3schools.com. Anyone doing web searches for html related content has undoubtedly seen w3schools. The problem is that much of the information is just not accurate.
Clean Coders: Code-casts for Software Professionals
This is a new production by Uncle Bob Martin, author of Clean Code and other books. This website was just launched today and looks pretty promising. The production style is unusual but fun. I’m looking forward to watching more than just the first video. Follow Uncle Bob on twitter, @unclebobmartin.
Tools I Like: Productivity Power Tools for VS2010
Highlight the current line of code, quick find, searchable add reference dialog, and the list goes on. I really enjoy most of the things that this plugin does, and if there’s something that you don’t like you can just turn it off from Options.
What I’m currently reading
The Art of Unit Testing, by Roy Osherove
Reference: Powershell profiles
This is not a page that I use very often, but it’s something that I do reference occasionally. Hopefully putting it here will make it easier for me to locate it, and it may be helpful to someone else out there that hasn’t seen it before.
git-tfs; using Git and TFS together
This is an interesting blog post that talks about how to use git and TFS together. It’s seems to be a pretty good option for improving local development, while still using TFS for managing the team branches of code. I’m going to give this a shot myself, as we move to TFS at work.
Tools I like: Launchy
“Launchy is a free cross-platform utility designed to help you
forget about your start menu, the icons on your desktop, and even
your file manager.”
Videos from mvcConf
These are the videos from the virtual conference based on ASP.Net MVC. The conference took place earlier this month, and it sounds like it was a great event. There were definitely a bunch of positive reviews on twitter.
