Many of my posts in the past have been tagged as a tutorial, where I walk you through each step you need to take in order to accomplish a specific goal. While popular, these posts tend to focus on advanced topics like WCF services and Silverlight development.

I have recognized, however, that many of the folks that read my blog don’t get to use advanced technologies on a day-to-day basis. You are building websites or desktop applications, and just don’t have the luxury of using the latest and greatest technologies.

This “Starter Series” is designed for you.

It will cover topics that can be used in everyday applications, and will be written in the context of a line-of-business application. We will work with things like a ListView control, AJAX controls, and other simple, but powerful approaches to software development. Since I am mostly a web developer, there will probably be a slant towards web development, but I will try to include posts on desktop application development as well.

My goal with this is to make you a more productive .NET developer.

If there are specific things you would like to see covered, I will be glad to take “requests.” Just email me at starterseries@jeffblankenburg.com, or post a comment on this post. I’ll get to ALL of them, I just can’t promise how SOON.

Happy Coding!

You will be able to find all of the Starter Series posts here, as they are published.
