Orchard Core is an open-source, modular CMS and general application framework which (as you can tell based on the name) ties to .NET Core. Multi-tenancy is very much at the root of what the project aims to deliver. A nice component here is that Orchard Core has been reimagined for .NET Core completely, rather than […]
I’ve been adventuring, not for the first time, into the world of Datatables. I’ve worked with this library in the past and, through recent work, ended up deciding it was high time I put together a small, re-usable utility module. There were a number of underlying use cases to cover: The module needed to configure […]
I’m having a random ‘pick a Channel 9 video and blog from there’ session; the subject of the day is Azure Maps and the inspiration came in the form of this video. The plan is to see what I can achieve in an hour or two, so here’s my quick rundown to wet your whistle. […]
I’ve recently been heavily embedded in implementing time zone sensitivity into a web application and I thought I’d share my first experiences on handling this from the perspective of the browser. A great little library for handling this kind of tricky number can be found in the form of Moment Timezone, which sits proudly beside […]
A very short piece on my current, off-the-wall, opinions on my little SEO journey so far and the shenanigans we’ve faced up to this point. Ok, so it hasn’t been that bad! Plus it’s interesting I have opted to use ‘spoons’, and not just a singular spoon. It looks like I plan to gouge out both my eyes […]
Greetings! A tidbit found by a friend of mine online, forming the basis for a small piece of work I’ve done this week surrounding name capitalisation. This was pulled from a stack overflow article so credit where credit is due for starters: js-regex-for-human-names This is fairly robust, covering Mc, Mac, O’s and double-barrelled, hyphenated names.

Hi everyone, With the holidays almost upon us I just wanted to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and all the best for the New Year! If possible, I will do my best to crank out a further post between now and the New Year. Here’s a teaser for the first part of the year […]
A brief titbit today, but one I felt was worth sharing and has come in handy for work/personal projects recently for me. I’ve had a couple of requirements to gracefully show/hide and adjust web page layouts based on screen sizes (and screen re-sizing). I came across the following solution which works pretty damn well. First […]
In my day to day job we use JavaScript in anger (or at least have to deal with it) on a sporadic basis. We dive into T-SQL, C# (either for server side logic in web applications or for desktop applications) and other parts of web development (CSS and HTML) on a rapidly spinning merry-go-round of […]
I’m back from my hiatus which encompassed getting married, eating far too much food and drinking wine and beer on the wonderful Adriatic coast. It’s time to get back to some serious coding and perhaps reconsider the longer term plans for this blog. To start us off, I’ve been contemplating pushing a little money into […]
