It took me ages to build a framework for Angular. Now that I've built it I can quickly create new apps based on the previous app, but I would hate to be back at newbie stage tried to build it again. So many moving parts. At least I can still integrate with existing code. Deployment is relatively ea

Yep, these days you abstract away the differences with polyfills. You build for different screen sizes using a css framework such as bootstrap. On 21 Nov 2017 3:27 PM, "David Connors" wrote: > On Tue, 21 Nov 2017 at 14:17 Greg Low wrote: > >> Completely agree (that’s why I said Apples and Orang

Silverlight was sold to us as the write one work in the main browsers solution that was going to take over. You can rightfully be sceptical of promises of any technology.

Sounds like you're trying too hard. I use the templates now built into visual studio with dot net core 2 or dot net framework. They provide angular or react templates. You create a new application and as soon as the packages have loaded, you can run the app with all its typescript glory. On 26 Sep

There is nothing inherently wrong with an ORM just for stored procs, but what I think your are really talking about is the ability to drag your stored procedures onto a canvas and have it generate the code to be able to interact with the stored procedure. That's all ORMs really are: code generators
