4. TWO PARTS OF THE STORY #codemash
5. YOU #codemash
6. You Had (Ezine Cheese) #codemash
7. Now, You Have #codemash
8. #sadpanda #codemash
9. But, wait! #codemash
10. VALUE #codemash

13. Problem • ASP.NET 5 is a complete rewrite • It has new concepts like DNX, DNU, DNVM • There are new challenges ahead (*cough* dotnet CLI *cough*) • Figuring out to invest time to adopt #codemash
14. Expectations • Not a 101 talk on ASP.NET 5. • There are some slides • It will not give you all the answers but will give an idea. #codemash
15. Agenda • Going through most important changes • With samples, advantages and the value #codemash
16. New Project Structure • Folder-based source • project.json, no more csproj. • Unified dependency management • webroot folder, seperation of the assets and app directories #codemash
17. New Project Structure: Advantages • No more merge conflicts on csproj • Your sanity is preserved™ • More aligned with other ecosystems • Easy to work with client side assets • webroot concept makes it easy to separate the concerns #codemash
18. DEMO Show me the code! #codemash
19. Command-line First Development • Three new command line tools: • dnvm: .NET Version Manager • dnx: .NET Execution Environment • dnu: DNX Utility • All the operations (build, pack, publish, etc.) can be done through command line • Of course, works the same under every available platform #codemash
20. Command-line First Development: Advantages • One important step on being code editor agnostic • More aligned with other ecosystems (e.g. Ruby, Go, Node.js, etc.) #codemash
21. DEMO Run some commands! #codemash
22. Modular, Composable HTTP Pipeline • Nothing is on the pipeline unless you want it to • You are in-charge of building your pipeline. #codemash
23. Modular, Composable HTTP Pipeline: Advantages • You don't pay the price for the stuff you don't use • You have the same pipeline and behavior between servers • More aligned with what other stacks do (e.g. Go, Node.js) #codemash
24. DEMO Show me the code! #codemash
25. Dependency Injection All the Way Down • Everywhere is testable, even Program.Main :) • Easy to get a hold of runtime dependencies • Built in DI container, can be replaced with your favorite #codemash
26. DEMO Show me the code! #codemash
27. Embrace Existing Ecosystems for Client Side Assets • bower: up-to-date dependencies. • No need to commit them into your source control system. • client side build • Bundling, minification, compile, etc. • being able to use nodejs tools like gulp, grunt which have up-to-date of everything. • No extra learning curve • Easily deploy to CDN #codemash
28. DEMO Show me the code! #codemash
29. New Configuration Model • Chained, ordered set of configuration providers • XML • JSON • INI • Environment Variables • In-memory • Customizable, you can have any format you like • No more config transforms #codemash
30. DEMO Show me the code! #codemash
31. Unified MVC and Web API • No more confusion (e.g. which AuthorizeAttribute is which) • MVC can be now self-hosted, no ties to System.Web #codemash
32. DEMO Show me the code! #codemash
33. Code Editor Agnostic • Top-notch Visual Studio Tooling Support with VS 2015 • OmniSharp to back other code editors • Atom • Sublime • VS Code • Emacs • Yeoman generators #codemash
34. Multiple framework targets • No more link source file compilation magic to get multi platform compile work • Cross compile for different framework targets (.NET Core, Good Old .NET, etc. #codemash
35. Cross Platform! • Windows, Linux, OS X • Build and run cross-platform ASP.NET apps in supported platforms • Kestrel: new web server on top of libuv for Linux and OS X • Docker #codemash
36. MORE DEMO Show me the code and linux! #codemash
37. What about tools and libraries? • Existing libraries are OK under full .NET Framework DNX versions • Some libraries started porting to .NET Core: • Autofac • Serilog • Elasticsearch .NET Client • Community puts effort to port some: • Neo4jClient: https://github.com/Readify/Neo4jClient/pull/140 • MongoDB .NET Client: https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-csharp- driver/pull/210 #codemash

39. What about tools and libraries? • Tools also started supporting DNX based apps #codemash

43. Summary • Cross Platform (Windows, OS X, Linux, etc.) • Multiple Target Frameworks and CoreCLR • More aligned with other stacks (e.g. Go, Ruby, Node.js, etc.) • New Project Structure • Command-line first Development Environment • Modular, Composable HTTP Pipeline • Dependency Injection All the Way Down • Embrace Existing Ecosystems for Client Side Assets • New Configuration Model • Unified MVC and Web API • Code Editor Agnostic (VS, VS Code, Atom, Sublime, etc.) #codemash
44. There are more… • Open source! • In-memory compilation • No ties to MSBuild whatsoever, choose your own build tool • Brand new Data Protection APIs • http://docs.asp.net/en/latest/security/data-protection/index.html • Secret Manager • Tag Helpers (approach them with caution!) • Entity Framework 7 • ASP.NET Identity 3 • And even more... #codemash
