Deployment

Dependencies: If upon uploading a package you are presented with "Failure reason: Failed to start deployment. Failure text: Package failed updates, dependency or conflict validation. (0x80073cf3)" TRY: Add the dependencies output in the Dependencies/x86 folder

This often happens as a result of uninstalling the application.

Forgetting the Remote Login

Getting started

This is some doco covering how to set-up a VPN for TESTING PURPOSES within Azure

This simple scenario will use: A Policy Bases VPN Type on a Site-to-site network using the Basic gateway SKU

This can be done via PowerShell and the Azure Portal, what follows is essentially a copy of: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/vpn-gateway/vpn-gateway-howto-site-to-site-resource-manager-portal

Naming of the italicised components is up to the end user, however naming should be consistent between components

Deployment

What follows can essentially be sourced from the link below: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/vsts/build-release/apps/cd/deploy-webdeploy-iis-deploygroups

1. Configure the Environment

Getting Started

Install:

jest: npm install --save-dev jest
ts-jest: npm install --save-dev ts-jest @types/jest

Modify package.json

"jest": {
  "transform": {
 "^.+\\.tsx?$": "ts-jest"

WKT: Well-Known Text
SRID: a unique identifier for the co-ordinate system to be used defined by EPSG. All Geography types in SQl Server have an associated SRID. Geography instances with different SRIDS cannot be compared without additional transformation.

Note: SRIDS must be the same when performing opertations on multiple geography instances*

SqlGeometry is 2D while SqlGeography is 3D+. It is worth considering deafaulting to SqlGeometry simply unless 3D measuements or localised geography systems are used. Many 3rd parties provide data in 2D and it is easier to transform geometries to difference co-ordinate systems.

Converting KML to WKT

Try SharpKml (https://github.com/samcragg/sharpkml) great library for manipulating KML

Load your KML:

Install Java Runtime Environment (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre8-downloads-2133155.html)
Download and extract sonarqube (https://www.sonarqube.org/downloads/)
Launch sonarqube: C:\sonarqube\bin\windows-x86-xx\StartSonar.bat
Browse to localhost:9000 to validate
Install the SonarScanner for MSBuild (https://docs.sonarqube.org/display/SCAN/Install+the+SonarScanner+for+MSBuild) Edit the SonarQube.Analysis.xml file in the directory the scanner for MSBuild was installed to:

Ensure the sonar.host.url element points to localhost:9000
Ensure the directory the scanner was extracted to is added to:

Mobile SEO: https://moz.com/learn/seo/mobile-optimization

Only show important fields so that people don't have to spend more time filling out the form than they need to
Top align fields so that the form is suitable for a mobile view
Design for fat fingers so people aren't penalized for using a smaller device
Collapse menus and dropdowns so that the form isn't harder to navigate through
Use predictive text so that the user has to type less
Use single inputs where possible so that they user has less fields to fill out
Make submit buttons standout, have meaningful names & possibly 1/3 so it is clear what the user must do and they know how close they are to completing the section
