.NET Framework Developer Center refresh!
Yesterday we refreshed the .NET Framework Developer Center!
Here’s a few of the highlights…
- New Top Task control on the home page – Contains shortcuts to the most common tasks (e.g. Get the Framework, Getting Started, etc.)
- Dynamic Community Content – See what’s going on in the .NET Framework developer community
- Most active newsgroups threads
- Top active downloads
- Top active KB searches
- New Getting Started page – Everybody’s gotta’ start somewhere, and if you’re new to .NET Framework development, this is where you should start.
- Simpler TOC!
- E.g. No more three-level menus for programming content!
- /netframework/programming -.NET framework programming information
- /clr - information on programming the Common Language Runtime (hosting the CLR, information on the Common Language Infrastructure specification, etc.)
- /bcl - information on programming the Base Class Libraries (stuff in the System namespace). Especially check-out the FAQs, and BCL team pics & bios!
- /interoperability – contains information on interoperating w/Win32 DLLs and COM components
- …
- Welcome the Microsoft Regional Director community! – RDs are recognized leaders of the community. You can find out all about them (e.g. blogs, code samples, etc.) in the RD section.
Take a look around and let me know what you think of the refreshed site!
Later,
