Sitecore does a good job of tracking events associated to a page that are triggered upon page visit - but in reality, we are more concerned about tracking client-side events especially since almost everything happens on the client-side these days due to the emergence of JavaScript frameworks like Angular and Ember. en https://oddeven.ch/blog/query-sitecore-items-in-web-api https://oddeven.ch/blog/query-sitecore-items-in-web-api Fri, 15 Apr 2016 15:22:36 GMT Jeff Building client-side web apps is the new trend, which means a lot of XHR requests to the back-end. Luckily, Sitecore provides a highly configurable Item Web API to help you with querying items from the client-side. But if you want results that are bound to your models and end-points not containing your query, then you will resort to querying items against the context database using ASP.Net Web API... only that... it doesn't work out of the box. en https://oddeven.ch/blog/rendering-sublayouts-in-sitecore-mvc https://oddeven.ch/blog/rendering-sublayouts-in-sitecore-mvc Tue, 29 Dec 2015 16:17:01 GMT Jeff There's no denying that Web Forms is dying and MVC has taken its place... at least in my opinion. The Sitecore guys know it, and it's evident that there has been a major shift to the latter. If you're starting out as a Sitecore developer chances are you're gonna start with MVC. But what if you've already started with Web Forms and want to do the transition without giving up your precious sublayouts just yet? en https://oddeven.ch/blog/mocking-sitecore-using-ms-fakes https://oddeven.ch/blog/mocking-sitecore-using-ms-fakes Thu, 10 Dec 2015 15:51:13 GMT Jeff Mocking Sitecore has been a tough nut to crack since Sitecore lacks the necessary interfaces that common mocking frameworks need, which really screws up automated testing for a lot of us. For that we turn to isolation frameworks like TypeMock and Justmock which unfortunately come with a huge price tag. en https://oddeven.ch/blog/build-sync-your-local-aspnet-site-the-fast-way https://oddeven.ch/blog/build-sync-your-local-aspnet-site-the-fast-way Thu, 19 Nov 2015 15:25:51 GMT Jeff With Visual Studio's publish functionality you can conveniently preview how your web project behaves and looks like on your local IIS web server. With that said, I believe publishing makes sense only if you've done significant changes since, depending on how big your project is, it may take some time to sync your deployable project files with the web site root folder, and deploying new DLLs and config files will definitely restart your website and flush your caches. But what if you just did a tiny update and just wanted to sync the changed file(s)? en https://oddeven.ch/blog/r-i-p-rem-viva-css-reference-pixel https://oddeven.ch/blog/r-i-p-rem-viva-css-reference-pixel Thu, 02 Apr 2015 13:25:36 GMT Gion In this article I’m going to share my observations and hopefully convince you to put an end to our beloved “rem” unit, that finally made it into our tools without fall backs (given IE8 dying slowly), but became totally useless in favour of the more popular CSS reference pixel. en https://oddeven.ch/blog/getting-the-best-out-of-bem-with-sass https://oddeven.ch/blog/getting-the-best-out-of-bem-with-sass Wed, 15 Oct 2014 11:58:48 GMT Gion BEM is not about writing class selectors with two underscores and namespace prefixes. BEM is much more than this. It’s a set of very basic rules in a simple but powerful methodology.
