Hangman Game From Scratch using ASP.NET MVC and WEB API

Have you ever wondered what it would take to create a simple game, and write it with ASP.NET MVC?

While writing that application, have you ever realized, "WOW !!  There're a lot of moving parts to this ?!?!??!!" ?

While teaching students in his ASP.NET web development class, Ray demonstrated the *original* CONSOLE based hangman game, and then demonstrated transforming and writing the equivalent game in ASP.NET MVC.

In this month's presentation you will see and consider what's involved with:

--  what design considerations are involved

--  what OBJECTs can be used

--  what are the VIEWs

--  what is in the CONTROLLER

--  what is in the MODEL

--  what logic is in each of the previous "steps"

--  how to implement specialized  HTML HELPERS and EXTENSION METHODS

--  ** THEN ** - incorporate WEB API as a "back end service"

(all of *that* for a simple "Hangman Game" ?!?)

:-)

See you there !!!

Ray has been in the IT industry for 20 years. He has functioned as a software analyst, developer, project manager and software architect in the transportation arena; mutual fund financial services arena; health provider and insurance arena; mechanical engineering arena; video, voice and data cable provider arena; and most recently, the IT Benchmarking arena and manufacturing arena.

Wednesday, November 1, 2017 at 6:00:00 PM Stowers Institute 1000 E 50th St, Kansas City,

Please join us for an evening of looking at the exciting past month of PHP news and learning about interesting concepts and projects in PHP and software development.

Ann Gaffigan will present a talk that she will have given at ZendCon 2017 in October and that she will give at Nomad PHP in December!

Light refreshments will be provided. Join us to meet new people, discuss PHP, and learn something new. 

Our Evening Meeting Format

We love Web Development and all things PHP. Our meetings are often a little free-formed, but we shoot for this schedule:

6:00pm - Mingling / Meet and Greet

6:15pm - Lightning Talk: Last Month in PHP

6:30pm - Ann Gaffigan - Tackling the Beast: Upgrading a Legacy Code Base to PHP 7
Hypothetically speaking, what if you wanted to change all of the lightbulbs in your house to use LED bulbs, but your current wiring didn't support LED bulbs? You would need to re-wire your house, which would take a long time. In the meantime, you wouldn't have any working electricity. Is there a better way? What if there was an adapter that could transition LED to work with old wiring if necessary, or if the wiring was new, just work as usual? That's a metaphor for how I figured out how to gradually upgrade a legacy (LAMP) code base to be compliant with PHP 7.0. Since PHP deprecated the MySQL extension functions as of PHP 5.5.0 and removed in 7.0, we needed to transition a LOT of code in a legacy system to use the modern MySQLi extension functions. In trying to figure out how to upgrade the code base without ceasing new development on the system, we decided to use an adapter database class to allow us to transition gradually. In this session, we'll explain how the adapter class works and also the rules we put in place to ensure there was an end to the transition tunnel.

Your topic here? Contact us to speak!

All Developers Welcome!

We understand Web Developers often come from all backgrounds, and many work in more languages than PHP. Whether you're curious and just starting out, dabble in PHP on the weekends, write custom PHP on a daily basis, work in a framework like Symfony, Zend Framework, Silex, Slim, Laravel, CakePHP or customize CMS products like WordPress, Drupal or Joomla; our goal is that you will find something new, useful and thought provoking.

Interested in giving a presentation to the group, or demoing something you're working on? Contact one of the organizers through Meetup or talk after a monthly meeting to sign up!

  • "So, who's gonna tell 'em?"

    The talk about "the talk" that nobody wants to talk about. The growing emphasis on "Individuals and Interactions" yields tremendous rewards, but not without risk. Teams who work together more increasingly find themselves in situations where they NEED to have sensitive and high risk conversations, but don't always know how to approach it. Everyone knows about some of the biggest challenges that face a team. They are also aware of the many ways the corrective conversation that can go awry. These conversations are often indefinitely delayed. Opportunities for growth are missed and resentment grows. Learn how to be the agent of change your team needs with techniques and practices to help you master the crucial conversations.

  • "We'll do it live!": Monitoring and Debugging in Production

    That big "P" word: Production. That new piece of shiny code you just wrote with a hundred percent test coverage goes ka-put once it's deployed once deployed there. What broken, and why? Sometimes the errors are a little more subtle, lying and growing there until you reach the right conditions. Either way, when users experience problems, it's not good. Maybe we need to check our assumptions a bit and figure out how to lower the risk if things go sideways. We'll go over my experience in a highly regulated industry to apply the OODA loop, continuous delivery, ownership, and observability to embrace failure to lower risk of production incidents.

  • A DSL for Your API

    Have you ever wanted to allow your users to be able to write scripts to execute actions within your application? Have you ever wondered how applications that do this accomplish it? Have you ever been sitting around with too much time on your hands and needed something interesting to think about? If so, then this talk is for you. During this talk we'll look at an app with a simple, easy to Grok API, and build up our own scripting language using the ANTLR4 Parser/Lexer generator, with which to drive it. All this, faster than you can say "The Dragon Book".
    2:15 PM - 3:30 PM : Room 108 : A DSL for Your API (Level: 200)

  • An Advocates Guide: You Just Got Hired. Now What?

    Great! You landed a new job and are now on a team of developers. Who is bringing you up to speed? What are you doing in your down time? What questions do you ask? This talk aims to demystify those questions, decrease imposter syndrome and give less experienced developers a fair chance at becoming leaders. Juniors to tech leads will find this talk valuable.

  • Basics of the Mobile Market: From Prototyping and Design to Delivery

    Companies like Google and Apple have made it really easy for any developer to create an app. The tools are great, the community support is amazing, and the tutorials are endless. This leads to a lot of amazing apps, but it also means the mobile market is crowded. There are a ton of apps out there and they do almost everything you can think of. How can you design and make something that will get noticed, and once you do, how can you maintain that momentum and build a product or a brand that is truly unique? I will cover the basics of getting started with your idea, including the importance of UI/UX as a base for your app and the tools for developing an Android app. Then I will go into the release process and how to convert views to installs and retain those users for the life of your app.

  • Beginner's Guide to Refactoring Code

    Imagine that you have just started working on a large established legacy code base with little test support. Documentation doesn't exist and the development culture has been of a ‘git er done' mentality, so there are reams of bugs, unused code, copy pasta, and so on. When you are tasked to make enhancements to this code, it seems like anything you do will likely cause it to break. In this session we will take a codebase of questionable quality and walk through a series of refactorings. I will lay out a consistent approach that you can apply to such code, and we will cover the common refactorings that are available in Eclipse, Intellij, and Visual Studio. If you bring your laptop along, I will be using Eclipse and code I find on Github, so you should be able to follow the presentation as we go through it.
    9:00 AM - 10:15 AM : Room 113 : Beginner's Guide to Refactoring Code (Level: 100)

  • Building a Distributed Message Log from Scratch

    Apache Kafka has shown that the log is a powerful abstraction for data-intensive applications. It can play a key role in managing data and distributing it across the enterprise efficiently. Vital to any data plane is not just performance, but availability and scalability. In this session, we examine what a distributed log is, how it works, and how it can achieve these goals. Specifically, we'll discuss lessons learned while building NATS Streaming, a reliable messaging layer built on NATS that provides similar semantics. We'll cover core components like leader election, data replication, log persistence, and message delivery. Come learn about distributed systems!

    As an application adds more and more features, if you're not careful, it can quickly spiral into becoming the application no one on the team enjoys working on. This talk is structured as a series of lightning talks on various topics to help you improve the maintainability of your ASP.NET applications. We'll discuss libraries and best practices to help with folder structure, validation, ORM's, unit testing, code flow, DevOps, and more. By the end, you should be able to take at least one thing away that you can start implementing immediately when you get back to the office.

  • Data Visualization with ggplot2

    This session will introduce you to data visualization using ggplot2, an elegant and versatile plotting system for R. ggplot2 is based on a "grammar of graphics" for describing and building plots. Data is mapped to aesthetic attributes (color, shape, size, etc) of geometric objects (points, lines, bars, etc). Statistical transformations may be applied and the plot can be drawn on a specific coordinate system. A plot can be repeated for subsets of the data using facetting. Sophisticated graphics can be built up in layers, combining multiple data sets if desired. Themes can be used to control things like font size and background color. Much of the power of ggplot2 comes from the fact that it is based on coherent set of principles. Although this means there is a bit of a learning curve, ggplot2 is not going to get you 90% of the way to your desired graphic and leave you frustrated that there is no way to achieve what you really want. Basic knowledge of R will be assumed but not absolutely required. You'll come away with a basic understanding of how to create data visualizations using ggplot2.

  • Debate Me

    For about 15 years I have been developing software and in that time have settled on certain opinions and preferences based on my experiences. Confirmation bias and the bubble that I am in reinforce those opinions and preferences. In this talk audience participation is required. I will be presenting a list of my personal opinions and preferences and, for each one, will open up the floor for friendly debate. My hope is that I can learn something and at the same time impart some useful information to all who attend.

  • Docker is Helping NFM Better Serve our Customers

    I am planning on presenting the several flavors of Docker we are using at NFM including: 1. Developers running Docker for Windows on VMware virtual machines running Windows Server 2016 highlighting how we use Docker Compose to support local instances of our Microservices during development. 2. Utilizing Docker running on Ubuntu and Centos Linux virtual machine in our CI/CD pipeline to support our integration testing and how this solution is integrated with Microsoft Team Foundation Server 3. Running a private Docker Registry to manage our build Artifacts in or CI/CD pipeline and getting the Registry tied into Microsoft Team Foundation Server Managing our docker containers within our DC/OS clusters which is our chosen Â Orchestration solution for our environments I am planning on hitting on some of the technical hurdles we had to overcome to get Docker up and running in each of these scenarios. There were different issues and expertise we had to gain in order to implement each different flavor of Docker. My hope is that by sharing some of the successes and failures we had along the way, others will be able to streamline their efforts of utilizing Docker. If there are are additonal topics of intertest to you, please let me know and I may be able to incorporate them into my presentation

  • Fast UX and Usability Testing for Agile Teams

    One of the benefits of agile development practices is responding quickly to feedback. We tend to focus on how to develop software in a way that gives us those capabilities, but it's time to start talking about how to actually get a useful feedback loop tied into the process. This will be a highly pragmatic discussion with real examples and demonstrations of how to create scripts, find participants, conduct measurable research and present findings.

  • Form Inputs: The UX Issue You Didn't Know You Had

    The lowly form input: it's been a part of HTML for as long as HTML has had a formal specification, but before HTML5, developers were hamstrung by its limited types and attributes. As the use of smartphones and their onscreen keyboards has flourished, however, inputs have taken on a new and incredibly important role - but they're also riddled with browser and device inconsistencies. Learn how input types and patterns can give your users a better onscreen keyboard experience, and how to abuse these features to meet the needs of today (if you must).

  • He's Assertive, She's Aggressive: Recognizing patterns of unconscious bias in the workplace

    People tend to classify one another by gender, race, or other physical characteristics and instinctively react based on stereotypes and cultural norms. These automatic prejudices (often called unconscious bias) contribute to the disproportionate success of white men in STEM when compared to equally qualified women or minorities. The key difference between unconscious bias and intentional discrimination is that the individuals that participate in it are often motivated to end these behaviors when they're brought to their attention. This discussion will cover common patterns of unconscious bias that occur in the workplace and offer concrete actions to intervene as an employee, a manager, or an organization.

  • High Performance Websites Revisited

    10 Years ago Steve Souders of Yahoo published the book High Performance Websites that described in depth how browser engines request assets and render html, and how to tune your pages for speed. Around the time the book was released, Yahoo also released YSlow, a tool which leveraged the highlights from the book to give a web page a grade for rendering speed and to help with tuning. Do the principles from 2007 still apply today? For this session a younger, hipper colleague of mine (Ben Kallaus, another developer at Telligen) will debate me as we cover the tuning recommendations made by the book and discuss whether they are still relevant. We will also spend part of this session reviewing developer tools built into Chrome and will describe how we use them as part of everyday development.

  • So you want (someone else) to learn to code

    My first programming classes in college were so bad that I withdrew from school and worked for a couple of years before regaining a love for programming. Since then I've had a number of opportunities to mentor youth wanting to learn programming, teach a class for homeschoolers, give presentations at high schools, and mentor new hires fairly fresh to professional programming. Two years ago I made a radical shift in my professional career and once again had the opportunity to be reminded of what is is like to go back to the beginning and learn afresh. Discussion items: - Inspiring love of programming - Experiences of what has worked and not - Tools, learning materials, teaching - Mentoring others

  • The Signposts on Your Agile Journey

    When I first saw the infamous Deloitte Agile Landscape diagram, I wondered how did agile get so complicated. The second thought was a question: 'how can I inspect those techniques and practices and choose the right ones for my team?'. In this session, I’ll talk about how empirical data (which I’m calling agile numbers) can serve as signposts on our journey to reach the goal of delivering customer value faster with maximum reliability and minimum issues. I’ll show how agile numbers can help us determine if a practice is worth the investment and whether it will improve our team’s performance. I will also share examples of agile numbers that can assist you in your agile journey. Those numbers are pulled from different sources like scientific studies, research from Google, and the 2017 State of DevOps Report.

  • WPF (and WinForms) isn't dead (Workshop)

    Let's look at two workplace scenarios. You have created amazing business applications (or) you start a new line of business application by creating a new project in Visual Studio. 90% of the time, it will default to WinForms or WPF. Why move your line of business apps and re-write them as universal apps? This is not necessary. We will show you how to bring your app to Windows App Store and add all the new bells and whistles. We will teach your app new tricks. Your app is not dead. You do not need to move over from your old code. Bring your existing apps that you want to see in the App Store and we will roll up our sleeves and have your app shine as new Universal Apps by using the Desktop Bridge. Takeaways: 1. Ability to add UWP features to existing WPF or WinForms applications 2. Understanding Windows Store Deployment process 3. Window Store Listing

Monday, October 30, 2017 at 6:00:00 PM C2FO 4210 Shawnee Mission Parkway, Fairway, KS

NOTE: This is our joint meet up with Data Science KC. If you'd like to attend, RSVP over at: https://www.meetup.com/Data-Science-KC/events/243681703/. The DS KC RSVP list is the OFFICIAL list of who is going.

We have two frighteningly good talks for the near ghoulesh evening! Ryan Brush, Cerner Distinguished Engineer, is going to talk about the hard data engineering work that powers an amazing new platform Cerner has built for healthcare data scientists and data analysts. The platform aims to give consistency and data access and structure for analysis. Coincidentally, Bob Wakefield will be talking about reproducible research in the data science space and how Tidyverse can help you get started on the right foot! Don't be caught saying "It worked in dev!" Bob will show us how to avoid common pitfalls. Healthcare Data Engineering and the Public Cloud

We start with petabytes of noisy, conflicting, incomplete and complicated healthcare data, and aim for meaningful features for machine learning and other analysis. This talk looks at Data Engineering techniques to first make sense of complex data, how we have grown cloud-based architecture to support it, and how we quickly adapt that system for new needs. Ultimately this lands in a scalable user experience powered by Apache Spark, along with a set of feature engineering patterns and a set domain-specific helper functions.

Reproducible Research with R, The Tidyverse, Notebooks, and Spark

Many of us data science and business analytics practitioners perform research and analysis for decision makers on a regular basis. The deliverable of such analysis often results in a Power Point presentation, and/or a model that needs to be productionalized. The code used to produce the analysis also needs to be considered a deliverable.

Many of us perform analysis without reproducibility in mind. With the increasing democratization of data, it is becoming more and more important for people that may not have scientific training to be able to create analysis that can be picked up by somebody else who can then reproduce your results. That, and creating reproducible research is just solid science.

We are going to spend an evening walking though the various tools available to create reproducible research on Big Data. You will get introduced to the Tidyverse of R packages and how to use them. We will discuss the ins and outs of various notebook technologies like Jupyter, and Zeppelin. You will have an opportunity to learn how to get up and running with R and Spark and the various options you have to learn on real clusters instead of just your local environment. There also be a quick introduction to source control and the various options you have around using Git.

The theme of the evening will be "getting started". We will go over various training resources and show you the optimal path to go from zero to master. Some commentary will be provided around the current state of the job market and intel from the front lines of the data science language wars. This is a large topic and the evening will be fairly dynamic and responsive to the needs of the audience.

Bob Wakefield has spent the better part of 16 years building data systems for many organizations across various industries. He has been running Hadoop in a lab environment for 3 years. He is the principal of Mass Street Analytics, LLC a boutique data consultancy. Mass Street is a Hortonworks Consultant Partner and Confluent Partner.

In his spare time, he likes to work on an equity investment application that combines various sources of information to automatically arrive at investing decisions. When he is not doing that, you'll find him flying his A-10 simulator.
