  • Azure Reporting Code Coverage for .NET Core and JavaScript

    I could not find a relevant article for combined code coverage reporting of a project with both .NET Core tests and Javascript tests, so having spent far too much time working it out I have documented the steps necessary here to save you the same pain. My projects are using XUnit to test my .NET […]

  • Azure .NET Core Web App and Where to Locate Static Files

    In Azure your web app is written to the “d:\home\site\wwwroot” folder, and if you deploy with Visual Studio and choose “Remove additional files at destination” anything not in your project will be removed from “d:\home\site\wwwroot”.

Further investigation revealed that it failed in the “_CheckForUnsupportedNETCoreVersion” step. It appears that if you are using .NET Core 2.2 as a target it will […]

  • Customising Bootstrap in ASP .NET Core 2.2 Web Application Projects

    The default Web Application template for .NET Core 2.2 in Visual Studio 2017 contains a default implementation of Bootstrap in the “wwwroot/lib” folder, which is fine if you are not concerned about your application/site being styled like every other Bootstrap site or including sizeable css and js files regardless of whether you are using all […]
