Web Development Trends: Mobile First, Data-Oriented Development, and Single Page Applications
I recently had the opportunity to give a keynote talk at an Intel conference about key trends in the world of Web development that I feel teams should be taking into account with projects. It was a lot of fun and I had the opportunity to talk with a lot of different people about projects they’re working on.

The JavaScript Cheese is Moving: Data-Oriented vs. Control-Oriented Programming
In a previous post I listed several of the JavaScript data binding frameworks that are available and talked about why they’re essential as applications move more and more functionality to the client. Data binding is a key aspect of client-centric programming that can significantly minimize the amount of code written, simplify maintenance, and ultimately reduce the number of bugs that crop up in an application. Without data binding you have to locate each control in a page with code and then assign or extract a value to/from it – something I call “control-oriented” programming. Here’s an example of control-oriented programming: -

New Features in ASP.NET 4.5 Web Forms Course Released on Pluralsight.com
I've been hard at work the past few months filming a new course for Pluralsight covering some of the great new features in ASP.NET 4.5 Web Forms. I'm excited to announce that the new course is titled New Features in ASP.NET 4.5 Web Forms and is now available on Pluralsight.com! If you're an ASP.NET Web Forms developer (and there are many of you out there!) then you should definitely take a look at the new features available in the 4.5 release if you haven't already. In my opinion, this is the most significant release since ASP.NET 2.0. I say that because some of the new features will truly change how you write your ASP.NET applications - especially the data binding features.

JavaScript Data Binding Frameworks
Data binding is where it’s at now days when it comes to building client-centric Web applications. Developers experienced with desktop frameworks like WPF or web frameworks like ASP.NET, Silverlight, or others are used to being able to take model objects containing data and bind them to UI controls quickly and easily. When moving to client-side Web development the data binding story hasn’t been great since neither HTML nor JavaScript natively support data binding. This means that you have to write code to place data in a control and write code to extract it. Although it’s certainly feasible to do it from scratch (many of us have done it this way for years), it’s definitely tedious and not exactly the best solution when it comes to maintenance and re-use.
