Recently, I needed to be able to parse Excel files and to output Excel files. However, I found that my old code from previous blog posts were now problematic:

Recently, I ran into a limitation with JSON.stringify with TypeScript classes that use inheritance. Using get/set in TypeScript with inherited classes results in the serialized output not containing the getter properties.

Within a new project I’ve been working on, I needed to be able to handle Routes dynamically in Angular. Primarily, this was driven on authorization. Due to this aspect, authentication had to occur first and that’s where the fun began.

Continuing my (old) series on porting to .NET Core, I am sharing some of my experiences of moving a production, legacy .NET 4.5.x application to .NET Core 2.2. This was a interesting endeavor since the application itself had some really deep hooks into the older WebAPI/MVC pipeline.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been working on making a legacy web application more accessible. Key factors in accessibility are being keyboard and narrator friendly.

Over time, code bases drift away from the latest tooling. If you recall my previous posts about Angular templates for Visual Studio, you may recall I upgraded that template to Angular 5.x. I spent a little time yesterday getting this template upgrade to the latest Angular 6.1.1.
