Today, many applications on the Internet expose an API which can be consumed by everyone using a web browser or a mobile application on their smartphone or tablet. How would you build your API if you want these apps to be a full-fledged front-end to your service without compromising security? Maarten explains how. http://www.developerfusion.com/article/147914/protecting-your-aspnet-web-api-using-oauth2-and-the-windows-azure-access-control-service/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/147914/protecting-your-aspnet-web-api-using-oauth2-and-the-windows-azure-access-control-service/ Thu, 06 Dec 2012 10:54:36 GMT Maarten Balliauw IBM.COM/DEVELOPERWORKS Scott Laningham takes a quick look at four new content pieces on developerWorks, IBM's premier resource for software developers and other IT professionals http://www.developerfusion.com/media/145990/twodw-an-inside-look-at-agile-devops-easier-embedded-linux-and-more-html5based-game-building/ http://www.developerfusion.com/media/145990/twodw-an-inside-look-at-agile-devops-easier-embedded-linux-and-more-html5based-game-building/ Mon, 24 Sep 2012 08:34:23 GMT James Crowley Say that each time the user clicks on a menu item in your application, the entire page is refreshed. Not such a big deal if you have a high speed connection, but, if there is a lot of content on the page, this can be a problem. What we need is the ability to fill in the partial view of data and change around the styles on the page without refreshing the complete page. This is where the HTML5 History API comes in, and that’s what this article based on HTML5 for .NET Developers is all about. http://www.developerfusion.com/article/145920/using-html5-history-in-an-aspnet-mvc-site/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/145920/using-html5-history-in-an-aspnet-mvc-site/ Mon, 24 Sep 2012 08:24:48 GMT Dan Maharry In this second article on Chocolatey, Rob Reynolds looks at various ways to have Chocolatey install multiple packages on your machine and also how to create your own Chocolatey packages. http://www.developerfusion.com/article/145913/apt-windows-lets-get-chocolatey-part-2-multiple-installs-and-package-creation/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/145913/apt-windows-lets-get-chocolatey-part-2-multiple-installs-and-package-creation/ Mon, 24 Sep 2012 08:24:47 GMT Rob Reynolds With a bit of thought and time, the JavaScript defining a page's behavior can be as quiet on a page as its CSS. In this extract from Professional jQuery, Cesar Otero and Rob Larsen demonstrate how. http://www.developerfusion.com/article/145905/using-javascript-unobtrusively/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/145905/using-javascript-unobtrusively/ Mon, 24 Sep 2012 08:24:48 GMT Dan Maharry In this article, Ravi introduces the Model-View-Presenter pattern for Web Forms development, and how it compares to MVC. Then he demonstrates how to get started with it, by creating a page in a test-driven fashion http://www.developerfusion.com/article/145904/an-introduction-to-testing-with-the-modelviewpresenter-pattern-for-web-forms-development/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/145904/an-introduction-to-testing-with-the-modelviewpresenter-pattern-for-web-forms-development/ Mon, 24 Sep 2012 08:24:07 GMT S. Ravi Kiran I always enjoy talking with Arlo about his open data work and the strange coincidence that he and Ward Cunningham are both working on this problem.  He chats about his work with big data, his penchant for starting with XP as the initial set of agile practices for teams to allow tight feedback and. http://www.developerfusion.com/media/145835/agile-2011-arlo-belshee-extreme-programming-agile-engineering-big-data-and-other-disruptive-behaviors/ http://www.developerfusion.com/media/145835/agile-2011-arlo-belshee-extreme-programming-agile-engineering-big-data-and-other-disruptive-behaviors/ Mon, 13 Aug 2012 00:05:47 GMT James Crowley Working with threads gets complicated quickly as you work to stop them falling over each other. One way to organise threads so that they co-operate without tripping over each other is to use a messaging mechanism to communicate between them. John Rivett-Carnac looks at one such implementation of internal application messaging. http://www.developerfusion.com/article/145371/an-internal-application-message-bus-in-vbnet/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/145371/an-internal-application-message-bus-in-vbnet/ Tue, 31 Jul 2012 08:32:54 GMT John Rivett-Carnac ListViews are a fundamental component in Android UIs and are used extensively. In this article, based on a technique presented in Android UI, the author discusses expanding the ListViews’ functionality so a basic list can be made into a really useful list. http://www.developerfusion.com/article/145373/android-listviews-with-dynamic-data/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/145373/android-listviews-with-dynamic-data/ Sun, 29 Jul 2012 23:59:50 GMT Dan Maharry Episode 172 of The SitePoint Podcast is now available!
