The App Builder Blog

In this article, I'm going to explain how you can use the power of Visual Studio Code and Node.js to build a custom editing tool to overcome ornery blogging platforms and just write Markdown.

In JavaScript, you may have heard of getters and setters. Let’s take a look at what these things are.

In Angular, content projection is used to project content in a component. Let’s take a closer look at how it works:

The Infragistics private NuGet package feed is a great way to make sure you’re always using the latest packages. But you’re probably tired of having to enter in the credentials every time you try to browse, download, or update one of your packages. We’ve identified a fix using the NuGet CLI. Learn more.

If you’ve already worked with Infragistics' Xamarin.Forms/Xamarin.Android/Xamarin.iOS DataGrid (XamDataGrid) you’ll have discovered it knows some very neat tricks.

If you’ve used other development platforms, you’re probably used to using a native toolbox that lets you drag and drop controls or whatever you need to your code. Now you’ve decided to use Xamarin.Forms… and there’s no toolbox.

A Note from Infragistics: Angular (formerly Angular 2) represents a huge departure from Angular JS (formerly Angular 1). While Angular JS used a more traditional MVC architecture that relied primarily on Controllers which controlled the interaction between a Model and the View, Angular has taken a more self-contained, composable Component based approach.

Cross platform development can be tricky, especially with mobile platforms involved. You could avoid it entirely by just building a separate app per platform, but that is neither cost effective, nor especially fun.

I once was in a project-scoping meeting for a client who wanted to create next generation banking products and services. Since these were new ideas, they assumed that the customers didn’t exist yet. We were considering conducting contextual inquiries, and a colleague said, “You can’t research someone who doesn’t exist yet.”
