The intent for this repository is to introduce seasoned developers in any major language such as JavaScript, Cold Fusion or Visual Basic to the following.
- C# programming language basics.
- Navigating Visual Studio's IDE.
Good links to get started with
- Visual Studio Documentation (very informative and lengthy)
- Learning the code editor in Visual Studio.
By following what is presented will assist developers when training becomes available here by a vendor.
While working with code many of the code samples will show old school methods to accomplish a task then a secondary example will show current conventions while discussing alternates hybrid solutions. Alternate and hybrid solutions are intermediate level ways to complete a task, which in many cases does not hinder performance.
Example: The task is to display a person's first and last name.
static void OldSchool()
{
string firstName = "Karen";
string lastName = "Payne";
Console.WriteLine(firstName + " " + lastName);
}The above code block works but there is a best practice for writing this today.
var firstName = "Karen";
var lastName = "Payne";
Console.WriteLine($"{firstName} {lastName}");"How to" in Visual Studio will be broken down into separate pages within this repository to perform common task.
- Visual Studio general topics.
The following section provides basics for getting started with C# programming language.
