September 2015 - JavaScript Task Runners for the ASP.NET Developer

Details

Presentation:

The popularity of JavaScript has exploded in recent years, and Microsoft has responded. With the release of Visual Studio 2015, ASP.NET (http://asp.net/) developers are exposed to a significant modern web tooling overhaul. One such tooling enhancement is the inclusion of JavaScript task runners; and, a few of the open source community’s most popular task runners, namely Grunt and Gulp, have become first-class citizens in the IDE.

In this session, you’ll gain an understanding of the role a JavaScript task runner plays in an ASP.NET (http://asp.net/) application. Along the way, we’ll discuss the differences between Grunt and Gulp and why you might choose one over the other.
