Podcast #6 - Project Design & The Future of C#

by Matt 1. December 2009 14:38

In this episode Chris, Matt and Eric discuss project design, Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2, ASP.NET MVC, the future of C#... and much more!

  • The guys start out by discussing some of the best practices for initial project design.
  • Chris and Matt used a Microsoft product called Sketchflow that is part of the Expression Blend family of products.  Another popular screen layout program is Balsamiq Mockups.
  • Writing specs can be an important part of the design process, even though some developers dislike this part.
  • Now that Chris and Matt have more experience with ASP.NET MVC, they talk about what they like and dislike about it, as well as how the repository pattern has helped with their current process.
  • Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 is out now, and is a huge improvement over Beta 1.
  • One of things we like about C# is how much it evolves as a language, which is also one of the things a lot of developers dislike.  One of the articles discussed is K. Scott Allen's article about where C# is in the development lifecycle.
  • To wrap up the podcast, the guys discuss DJ Hero and The Beatles Rock Band.
