In the last post we got the Title of the UWP app passing up the app. But it's not part of the app. There's no trigger for the app to LOAD the data. We have the mechanism; but where from? Today we'll get the data load triggered from the screen…
Using Visual Studio CodedUI Automated Tests for logging in via Windows Hello / Micrcosoft Passport! We're implementing the ability to use Windows Hello, or Microsoft Passport, to log into our app. The exact mechanism of how we handle credentials isn't important here. As the title suggests, this is about using the…
Since we're now able to TDD up the entire app; showing our wrapped control. Sounds like time to display a story title. I've re-worked the naming; not behavior; of the VBM pattern [https://quinngil.com/2017/01/08/pattern-view-bridge-mediator-2/]. It's now the [Hotel UI Pattern](LINK GOES HERE). Same basic…

When we last left our brave little app... And if it's trying to be on the windows platform; you know it's indeed brave - It had just configured it's network layer and is looking to expose it to the wider world! I spent a few hours staring at the black…
Much like Volume 1; Elegant Objects Vol 2 [https://www.amazon.com/Elegant-Objects-2-Yegor-Bugayenko/dp/1534908307/]is fantastic. It didn't impact my mental model of how to develop software as much as Vol 1. This Vol is more about the things that are destructive to the desired programming paradigm described in…
A comment on my Early Thoughts: Object Oriented Encapsulation [https://blog.quantityandconversion.com/2017/04/09/object-oriented-encapsulation/] post brought up an excellent view about how to decouple a class from it's display mechanism. I'm on board with this idea. It helps keep the objects to their single responsibility. My first…
