Finally! HTML5 & CSS3 standards support for Visual Studio 2010. Download it now!

HTML5
VS Web Standards Update provides you intellisense and validation for most common HTML 5 features like:

    Browser APIs

    • Geo-Location – Having location aware websites is growing trend and now you will have full intellisense and validation within Visual Studio for creating websites which are location aware.  For sample view the source for the IE9 test drive demo.
    • Local Storage – IE has been supporting local storage from IE8 onwards, now Visual Studio will provide you with full fidelity intellisense to create sites which can save state within browser.  For sample of try view source on HTML5 Demo Site

    CSS3

    This update supports intellisense and validation for most of the CSS3 modules including:

    Additionally, if you are trying to make websites which work on a variety of platforms and browsers you will love the fact that Web Standards Update not only supports IE specific prefixes like –ms; but also other vendor prefixes like –webkit and –moz.

    Sharable Links

    PS: The Web Standards Update works on both VS 2010 SP1 and VWD Express 2010 SP1.  Being a VS Extension, it does not support certain CSS3 selector syntax & Browser API intellisense which would require servicing the shipping bits.

    Ever since the announcement of a paid-for product, .NET Reflector by RedGate which has been a free application that is now an essential tool to many .NET developers, there has been an uproar among the community developers regarding this move to completely change a free essential developer tool to a paid-for app.

    JetBrains, the creator of the famous and popular ReSharper, dotTrace and dotCover, has now created a free decompiler tool that’s similar (if not better) than .NET Reflector called dotPeek.

    dotPeek offers:

    • Decompilation of .NET 1.0-4.0 assemblies to C#
    • Code syntax highlighting and code insight features
    • Complete keyboard support
    • Visual Studio look-and-feel
    • The full power of ReSharper-style navigation

    Learn more about dotPeek and download an early build. Please submit bug reports and feature requests to the dotPeek issue tracker, and discuss the tool on the dotPeek forum.

    For latest news and hints, follow dotPeek on twitter or like JetBrains on Facebook

    Finally, have in mind that decompiling will also be available right in Visual Studio as part of the upcoming ReSharper 6.

    Moving to Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 – Free ebook

    Who Is This Book for?

    This book is for professional developers who are working with previous versions of Visual Studio and are looking to make the move to Visual Studio 2010 Professional.

    What Is the Book About?

    The book is not a language primer, a language reference, or a single technology book. It’s a book that will help professional developers move from previous versions of Visual Studio (starting with 2003 and on up). It will cover the features of Visual Studio 2010 through an application. It will go through a lot of the exciting new language features and new versions of the most popular technologies without putting the emphasis on the technologies themselves. It will instead put the emphasis on how you would get to those new tools and features from Visual Studio 2010. If you are expecting this book to thoroughly cover the new Entity Framework or ASP.NET MVC 2, this is not the book for you. If you want to read a book where the focus is on Visual Studio 2010 and on the reasons for moving to Visual Studio 2010, this is the book for you.

    You can download a PDF of the book here.

    You can download an XPS of the book here.

    And you can download the book’s sample code here.

    VSLab – F# Visualization

     Languages  No Responses »
    Jul 172008
     

    Visual Studio Lab (VSLab) exploits the power of F# and its interactive top level to provide an interactive environment similar to MatLab and Mathematica, in which you can easily create Add-ins and interact dynamically with them inside Visual Studio. Moreover, since F# is a compiled language, the final code can be compiled as a standalone application.
    Goal of the project is to provide the basic infrastructure to turn Visual Studio in VSLab, and a number of addins (called viewlets) used to show data and support development of scientific based applications.

    Take a look. :) I assure you that you’ll be impressed.
