Save Time

Josh and myself have spent quite a lot of time with Visual Studio 2012 and ASP.NET 4.5 and have stumbled across some really awesome gems that we wanted to share with the developer community. So we took these gems and put together an ebook called "Time-Saving Features in Visual Studio 2012 and ASPNET 4.5”. This ebook contains an overview of the features that we found to be the most helpful and that overall help you as a developer do one thing; save time.

Whether it be actually reducing the amount of code you have to write to achieve a certain functionality, a completely new and easy to implement feature, or a tool that helps you debug faster, it all helps you produce your applications faster and with more accuracy – which is always a good thing if you ask me!

So, what is in this ebook you ask? Well, without ruining the ending (because we all hate spoilers) here’s a quick list of some of the items we cover:

  • JavaScript Intellisense
  • CSS Intellisense
  • ASP.NET and Web API (overview and CRUD operations)
  • Strongly Typed Data Binding
  • Page Inspector (new debugging tool)
  • And others!

Are you super excited to check it out? For those of you answering that in the comments, it was a rhetorical question because of course you are!

A really great part about the various sections is that if you need more information outside of what is already contained within the sections we have useful links that you can check out to get an even deeper knowledge on the topic. Essentially we provide the appetizer and the entrée, while we link to the dessert.

Anyone else hungry for some reason?

IMHO, you should go through and make sure to update all the places that say 'VS11' and replace it with 'Visual Studio 2012' - in this post, in the e-book, etc.

Thanks for your feedback James! I know it gets easily confusing with the naming scheme, since the earlier codename for this version of Visual Studio was called VS11 and with the recent RC release it became Visual Studio 2012. What we've done here in the e-book is mix and match them a bit to ensure that people only familiar with the VS11 name still can follow along.

Heck, by RTM it might even become VS13 :-)
