The bundling, compression, and minification of JavaScript is important to the speed and performance of modern websites. This is why I was so excited to hear that such features were (finally) coming built in to ASP.NET MVC 4. Introducing MvcBundleConfig: a project that adds configuration and debugging features to MVC 4's bundling framework, and meets the needs and wants of a good minification framework. (more)

Asynchronous programming in C# 5

One of the more radical design decisions in the forthcoming Windows Runtime is that no API may, even potentially, take more than 50 milliseconds to complete. Operations that could take longer than that will instead have a 'kick off this operation' API that returns immediately without waiting for the result of the operation. Discover how this will change how .NET developers write code and what C# 5 includes to take advantage of this new focus on Async. (more)
