Web Design With .Net

Sometimes it can be difficult to find your "Google My Business" information if you don't know the URL. You will need your Google account that is linked to your My Business account.

Have you ever created a Git repository and then later realised you created it in the wrong level of the folder structure.

Until now, I have dropped the repo and started again but the problem with that is loss of change history.

I show you how to change the folder level of your Git repository without losing any history. In fact, the history that is added as a result of this process is indicative of the changes you made.

I show you by using Wordpress as an example. Instead of just storing the Wordpress theme in the repository, I want to go higher up the folder structure and include the plugins and uploads too.

But this process can be applied to any folder structure. And it's so easy.

This video is a description of how to incorporate SASS into your Visual Studio projects. Using the application, Web Essentials, you can use SASS (CSS pre-processor) in your MVC and Web Forms projects. Web Essentials compiles the SASS into standard CSS so you can include the stylesheet in your project. All you need to do is reference the CSS file in your MVC bundle or Master File.

This video is a description of the architectural design of a typical .Net solution using separation of concerns and object mapping. This video sets a foundation for future videos and describes how to reference layers to create a physical security barrier for data and build a platform for successful Unit Testing. It describes how to manage T4 templates, entity DTOs and how to manage transfer between ORM-generated POCOs and ViewModels.

01:30 - The Onion Architecture - Jeffrey Palermo

02:00 - Solution Layers

02:30 - Data Layer - Entity Framework, model context, repository pattern

03:45 - Business Layer - physical limitations to the data layer and contains business rule classes

05:15 - Domain Layer - commonly used core classes. Helpers, utilities and a copy of the model T4 template

08:20 - UI Layer - copy entity DTOs and make them ViewModels

11:00 - Using interfaces to expose methods between Business and UI layers
