Building with VS2010

The big change is the workflow integration in the build. Which is cool.

I'm very glad to see that they've minimized the use of MSBuild. MSBuild is retarded, I'm glad I don't have to touch it anymore.

If I have to do anything complex I launch a custom powershell script to do it.

Software that I use:

Slysoft Virtual Clone Drive
Office 2010
  OneNote
VS 2010
  Power Commands
  GIT SCC
Firefox
  Firebug
  Rikaichan
  Delicious
  StumbleUpon
  FireFtp
Chrome
Adobe Acrobat
Sql Server 2008 R2
PowerGui
AutoHotKey
Notepad++
Reflector
JQuery
TrueCrypt

I should put this in a static web-page, so I can provide linked commentary on each tool.

Week 9: MonoDevelop Hello World

I fired up Monodevelop for the first time, to see how hard it was to develop on Linux. I'm running Ubunto 9.10 and had it installed from ubuntu's cool software installation untilities. It wasn't hard. And the silly console program that I wrote ran just fine on Windows. Nifty.
