Visual Studio 2008 and .NET 3.5 is out!!

Scott Guthrie carried the good news from the source. If you're like me and can't just wait, head over and download the FREE Express Editions. The Professional version 90-day trial will be released soon.

 

Personally, I am looking forward to Visual Studio's Intellisense native support for Javascript and Ajax. And it has Mult-Targeting support so you can continue developing ASP.NET 2.0 web sites you already have until you upgrade it to .NET 3.5.

 

I haven't read anything about DLR in this release. Seems they skipped it in this release. And the same goes for MVC support. If you're anxious to write IronPython/IronRuby like me, you will have to download them separately.

 

Anyways, check out the new features that Scott blogged about and just keep doing what you do best: coding happily ever after;)




15+ Free Visual Studio Add-Ins

Now here's a real gem for all you .NET developers out there. Carl J has compiled a comprehensive list of Visual Studio addins. So what? they're ALL FREE!

And to my surprise, I only knew about 4 or 5 of them, the rest were lurking some where in the wilderness of the internet, waiting for Carl to Google'em out for us :)

 

Excellent job Carl. [dotnetkicks]

About Me

AA. I am Mohamed Salem Korayem. I work as an Embedded Software Engineer in a major international automotive supplier company here in Cairo, Egypt.

Currently I work in the Tooling Dept. where I, and the rest of the team, strive to make our fellow embedded software geeks happier. I work mainly with the .NET 2.0 using C#.

I also have a big appetite for web-development. I like analyzing the revolution of the web (aka Web 2.0) and how it affects people's lives in return. I develop web-apps with ASP.NET 2.0/Python in my free time. For client-side stuff, I use jQuery for all that Javascript magic.

What I muse, I share on this blog. So enjoy reading my mind and in case you like what you read, kindly subscribe by either email or RSS.
