Do you know what your web app is up to? Carl and Richard talk to Sam Basu and Rosen Vladimirov about the latest versions of Fiddler. The original Fiddler for Windows is a free tool, but the Progress team has written all new products in the Fiddler space that are cross-platform and designed to work with different groups of people. Fiddler is for developers, first and foremost, letting you see the messages passing between the browser (or other clients) and the server in HTTP and HTTPS. With the new products, you can also connect to SignalR and gRPC data! Then there are tools for tech support and even embedding capabilities into your applications.

Push notification testing is covered and much more.
On this episode guests Steve Smith and Sam Basu share their thoughts on software craftsmanship, clean code, and software quality. Are you taking steps to create maintainable, and testable code? Find out what you can do to get started.
Ed and Sam Basu cover the latest news in the development community including: Angular 2, NativeScript snacks, ASP.NET Core RTM, and Windows CLI. http://developer.telerik.com/content-types/podcast/developer-digest-6/ 00:01 Ed Charbeneau: This podcast is part of the Telerik Developer Network. Telerik, by Progress. [music] 00:18 EC: Hello and welcome to Eat Sleep Code, the official Telerik podcast. I’m your host, Ed Charbeneau, and today my co-host for the Telerik Developer Digest episode will be Sam Basu. Hey, Sam. 00:32 Sam Basu: Hey, Ed. How you’re doing? 00:35 EC: Good. We have a busy week with the Telerik Developer relations. Brian is out, so thanks for filling in for him. 00:43 SB: No problem. 00:46 EC: So, I’m gonna kick things off a little differently this time. We have a really cool program going, called All Your Snacks Are Belong to Us. This is a NativeScript DevRel initiative. So, the NativeScriptSnacks website is this really cool place where you can go get these five minute or less videos on how to do something really awesome in NativeScript. So there’s a campaign going to get people out there and submit some videos of your own, and we have some cool sunglasses and stuff that we’re giving away. So I asked Jen Looper, who is in charge of this really cool contest, or whatever you wanna call it, to just kinda give us a little info on what the contest is all about and how to get involved. So I’m gonna hand it over to Jen, and then we’ll get back to the show in a moment. 01:53 Jen Looper: Hi, everyone. This is Jen from Developer Relations and I’m happy to announce a fun summer program that we’ve launched on the NativeScript community Slack channel. First of all, if you aren’t on that channel, you can join by visiting NativeScript.org, clicking Community, and then Slack Channel and requesting an invitation. And we have a lot of fun times on that channel, I’ll tell you. Second, we’ve launched a bounty program from within that Slack channel which involves submitting any short video tutorials or code snippets for NativeScript apps. So this summer, if you submit a snack, what I call a snack, to NativeScriptSnacks.com, I will personally ship you a pair of NativeScript sunglasses. And these are really nice, comfortable, good-looking glasses. You’re gonna need them during the dog days of summer. So please, visit NativeScriptSnacks.com, submit a snack and tell us all about it on Slack. Thanks a lot. 02:43 EC: Okay, Sam, we’re back with the next topic at hand. We had an article by Peter Filipov this week, and the title of the article is “Every ASP.NET web developer can be a mobile developer”. So Peter’s discussing the similarities between ASP.NET web forms and NativeScript. So, Sam, what’s your take on this comparison? Is this something that’s really similar, or how were those similarities broke down, what do you think? 03:21 SB: Yes, I think so. But before we get into it, just maybe a quick introduction. Peter Filipov is actually our colleague on the Developer Relations team. He comes from a very technical background. He used to be one of the PMs in our ASP.NET developer tools division for Telerik, and he has come over from Sofia and now he is a PM and a DevRel for Sitefinity, so he really comes from a very diverse and technical background. And I think what he’s doing, and he’s got a couple of articles this week, he’s trying to draw some parallels between the world that he comes from of ASP.NET and Sitefinity, and bringing that experience over to NativeScript, which is our cross-platform way of making Native mobile apps. And I think he makes some very convincing points. Find the full transcript on Telerik Developer Network http://developer.telerik.com/content-types/podcast/developer-digest-6/

On this episode of Eat Sleep Code, Jeff Fritz from Microsoft talks about the .NET Core RC2 release. Changes in the CLI, package.json, and the Standard Library are discussed. http://developer.telerik.com/featured/net-core-goes-rc2/ 0:00:00 Ed Charbeneau: This podcast is part of the Telerik Developer Network. Telerik, a progress company. [music] 0:00:11 EC: Hello, and welcome to Eat Sleep Code, the official Telerik podcast. I’m your host, Ed Charbeneau, and with me today is Sam Basu and Jeff Fritz. Morning guys. It’s Friday the 13th, how you doing? 0:00:24 Sam Basu: Morning. 0:00:25 Jeffrey Fritz: I’m terrified. What’s gonna go wrong today? Look out. [laughter] 0:00:31 EC: Now, I’ve got Sam here from Telerik. Sam, why don’t you give yourself a brief introduction for folks, let everybody know what you do? 0:00:40 SB: Sure thing. So just like Ed, I’m a developer advocate with Telerik. Advocates are evangelists, we really don’t do anything, we just talk about stuff and try to shy away from the really hard stuff. No, I’m just kidding. We try to stay on top of technology and especially on the Microsoft stacks, so I think it’s great to have Jeff on with us today, I think we’ve got some big changes coming and it’s exciting. So that’s me. 0:01:06 EC: And Jeff Fritz, you’re working with Microsoft now, why don’t you give everybody a quick intro as well. 0:01:12 JF: Yeah, hey there. I’m Jeff Fritz, I do work for Microsoft, I’m part of the ASP dot NET Developer Outreach Team. It’s our job to put together some of the content, manage some of the social interactions, the blog posts, the videos that you’re gonna see and use to learn more about ASP dot NET core dot NET Core. And I also manage the ASP dot NET web forums team. So I do a little bit of everything there for Microsoft. 0:01:41 EC: It sounds like you’re a really busy guy over at Microsoft these days especially with all of the new things happening with ASP dot NET and dot NET Core, so we wanted to have you on the show today to talk about those huge changes and the big release coming up. So why don’t we go ahead and start things off with just an overview, I guess, of what’s happening in dot NET land.

On this episode of Eat Sleep Code, guest Jen Looper talks about what happened at the latest Angular conference, ng-conf. Later on the show, C# MVP Peter Ritchie and Sam Basu talk about the future of C# and cross platform development.
Heard of NativeScript? Carl and Richard talk to Sam Basu from Telerik about NativeScript, a dev stack using JavaScript to build native mobile applications. Sam describes how NativeScript is different from Cordova, since it doesn't use HTML or a runtime that essentially hosts a browser - instead it has a custom UI markup language that is rather similar to XAML and compiles into native code on iOS and Android (Windows Phone coming soon). So if you like working in Javascript but want native performance, you should take a look at NativeScript!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/net-rocks/donations
