Here are some of the features as mentioned on the Aurelia website:

  • Forward thinking: Written with ES6 and ES7 but transpiles to today’s browsers
  • Modern architecture: Multiple small replaceable components
  • Two-Way databinding: Performant two-way binding to any object using adaptive techniques
  • Extensible HTML: Read as ‘Angular Directives’ Glimlach
  • Routing & UI Composition: The already great Durandal router on steroids
  • Broad Language Support: Written with TypeScript, AtScript, CoffeeScript,… in mind
  • …

And here an introduction video:

As a big fan of Durandal(and Caliburn), I’m really interested in the results. I know what to look into the upcoming weeks…

That makes sense as the podman VM was not running. Let’s check the VM: >podman machine list NAME         ...

Cleaner switch expressions with pattern matching in C#

Ever find yourself mapping multiple string values to the same result? Being a C# developer for a long time, I sometimes forget that the C# has evolved so I still dare to chain case labels or reach for a dictionary. Of course with pattern matching this is no longer necessary. With pattern matching, you can express things inline, declaratively, and with zero repetition. A small example I was working on a small script that should invoke different actions depending on the environment. As our developers were using different variations for the same environment e.g.  "tst" alongside "test" , "prd" alongside "prod" .  We asked to streamline this a long time ago, but as these things happen, we still see variations in the wild. This brought me to the following code that is a perfect example for pattern matching: The or keyword here is a logical pattern combinator , not a boolean operator. It matches if either of the specified pattern...
