- Project format is changing to a single JSON file
- ASP.NET MVC and Web API have been unified into a single programming model
- Project Roslyn allows for a “no-compile” developer experience while making updates
- Migration to a OWIN hosting model allows for flexibility in production web hosts (IIS or running on Linux via Mono)
When you start working on a new web application you will probably need to analyze different tools to deal with the different functionalities that you have to work on. As soon as you start searching for alternatives you are going to run across Angular and React, they are without any doubt two of the major options to consider, at least till today.
Introducing QOI — the Quite OK Image format. It losslessly compresses RGB and RGBA images to a similar size of PNG, while offering a 20x-50x speedup in compression and 3x-4x speedup in decompression. All single-threaded, no SIMD. It's also stupidly simple.
Compared to stb_image and stb_image_write QOI offers 20x-50x faster encoding, 3x-4x faster decoding and 20% better compression. It's also stupidly simple and fits in about 300 lines of C.

XML in general is a powerful beast, with so many options available that it quickly gets really complex. The XML Digital Signatures standard is no exception to that. The extra features complexity of XML DSig compared to other signature standard is that one or more different blocks of data can be signed by the same signature block. That data can be the containing XML Document, part of an XML document or some other resource such as a web page. In this post we’ll only look at signing resources in the document containing the signature.
