I am going to add it as a template language as well, but that is not happening now. http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment11http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment11Wed, 07 Mar 2007 09:24:00 GMTWhat do u mean by "Boo (for configuration, of all things)"? http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment10http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment10Wed, 07 Mar 2007 08:43:06 GMT@Jason, I just installed that on all my machines, they are Win2003 + IE7. When I need to do JS debugging in IE, I am using VS, which has a pretty good debugger for JS. Personally, I work with FF almost all the time precisely because of FireBug, it is amazing powerful, and _so_ easy to work with. http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment9http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment9Tue, 06 Mar 2007 00:45:12 GMT@Asher, Would you believe that I literally forgot about VS? Added that, thanks. http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment8http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment8Tue, 06 Mar 2007 00:38:51 GMT@Ernst, ROTFL. I know the feeling. http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment7http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment7Tue, 06 Mar 2007 00:38:14 GMT>>> Web Developer toolbar Beta 3 Wow you got that to install? Congrats! It hosed two dev boxes here, uninstalled and still got nasty js debug errors in IE. Someone mentioned firebug lite for IE JS debugging which I've been meaning to play with (but only offers a subset of features of something like the toolbar).. Firebug rocks!. Mayby MS can spend a bit more time on the browser frontend for developer tools for web development. We're using a subset of the tools you listed, with the hope of investigating more, especially interested in Igloo at the moment, would love to see more of what you do with it Ayende. To add to the List: Trac for subversion log tracking and project management. MooTools for some fancy slideshow javascript Ajax.Pro - just because we started with that before MS AJAX was born. GhostDoc - for adding XML comments into code. http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment6http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment6Tue, 06 Mar 2007 00:05:10 GMTInteresting is that most people (not you) use OSS as surrounding tools, like NUnit or NAnt, not to create their application core (structuremap, castle). This shows how people are afraid to commit anything "serious" to OSS. Sad, but likely to change. http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment5http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment5Mon, 05 Mar 2007 23:51:01 GMTSo.... no using Visual Studio.... are you ? http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment4http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment4Mon, 05 Mar 2007 22:14:15 GMT@Nicolai yup, but not only the one familiar with OSS, even the vanilla dev-ers we get on interviews are more applying for an education than a job :( http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment3http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment3Mon, 05 Mar 2007 20:39:06 GMTI use a similar mix of OSS (NHibernate, log4net, SVN, Spring.Net) for productivity, but recently I was talking about the use of OSS libraries with a developer from another team, he raised the problem of finding .Net developers familar with these "non standard" (= non Microsoft) librarys. Has anybody had a problem hiring developers familar with these technlogies? http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment2http://ayende.com/2162/do-you-use-oss-tools-for-net-development#comment2Mon, 05 Mar 2007 20:31:14 GMTJumping on the wagon with Jeremy Miller and Ayende, here.
