Live coding session 2nd sitting – Refactoring plain js to typescript
Got some great feedback on my first screencast, which is awesome! I mentioned that I usually use typescript in my previous post and one viewer picked up on that and requested a screencast converting the app to use typescript. Excellent idea, so here it is! Once again I underestimated the time it would take though, […]
Live coding session – Developing an app prototype in less than an hour
Got some alone time and decided to spend an hour on coding. I recorded my coding session, making this my first official screencast! The idea is to share my thoughts when I write code and perhaps get some constructive criticism / feedback. The task was to create an app to keep track of how much […]

Migrating ASP.NET MVC to WebApi with no breaking changes
Recently I’ve had the pleasure to upgrade our REST interface at work from Asp.Net MVC3 to WebApi so I thought a lessons learned or “watch out for this” blog post was suitable, especially since I managed to do it without the need to bump any version number on our server i.e. no breaking changes.
