Parsippany, NJ – Take Control of Your ORM with Entity Framework

No Comments

I had an excellent time last night at the Northern NJ .NET User Group in Parsippany, NJ. I spoke about “Taking Control of Your ORM with Entity Framework Code-First”. Thanks to everyone that came out and to the meetup organizers for putting the event together. Every time I present, I challenge the group to which I’m presenting to give to a worthy cause if they enjoyed the talk. Last night, N3UG broke a record by meeting their goal in less than a day. As a result, I’m happy to report that at least 3 people will get access to clean drinking water. If you attended and enjoyed it–or even if you

I had an excellent time tonight at the New York ALT.NET Meetup in New York, NY. I spoke about “Taking Control of Your ORM with Entity Framework Code-First”.

In all seriousness, I had a great time meeting everyone, and

“Kendo <3's AngularJS" at Enterprise Developers Guild

No Comments

This Tuesday, March 24, I’ll be speaking at the Enterprise Developers Guild in Charlotte, NC. The title of my presentation is “Kendo <3’s Angular: Two Great Libraries, Together At Last!“. [Event Details] In my talk I’ll be talking about using AngularJS and Telerik’s Kendo UI framework together. On its own, Kendo UI provides everything you need to create great JavaScript applications. That includes a world-class widget library. But in recent years, AngularJS has exploded onto the scene, becoming a popular and elegant framework for creating web applications. Angular, however, lacks its own built-in widget library. This could have created a nearly perfect match, but when Angular first came along, using it with Kendo
