Refactoring to Patterns: WPF Edition
To some it may appear that I have abandoned client side development for Azure. Nothing could be further from the truth. As I'll tell anyone who will listen, I'm just like a kid who's opened his presents on Christmas and found a new toy to...
How "Cider" Saved the Day
