Introduction In this article I will walk through the process for writing and publishing a .NET NuGet package to nuget.org. It can be quite fiddly to work with NuGets so, I’ve created a new project to establish a simple end-to-end approach and will apply lessons learned to my other packages.

Adding Calendar Events to Google Calendar in C#
I’ve replaced a custom event page for the Thistle Society with a list extracted dynamically from a Google Calendar. Following on from the previous article, Loading XML in C# with XML Serialisation, I needed to upload the events into the Google Calendar from my C# application (Event Manager).

The Making of … Kajabity YearChart – Part 1
I am really proud of Kajabity YearChart because it is the first time I have produced a complete application all on my own and published it. Oh, I know it’s hardly a world shattering innovation – it doesn’t do very much and it’s not particularly “cool” to capture the imagination (and idle fingers) of teenagers. Read More
