Razor is a syntax used to build web pages within ASP.NET applications. In essence it’s a mix of Razor specific markup, C# (or VB) and HTML code. In this guide I’m going to introduce you to Razor syntax, explain how it works and show you some other related stuff. It’s worth noting that Razor syntax is pretty simple. Visual Studio has syntax highlighting for it as well as it supports Razor intellisense. ...
During one of my projects I was implementing payments using Stripe and PayPal. I had to test webhooks in order to confirm subscriptions (recurring payments) periodically. Since I was developing locally my app could not receive requests. In this post I’m going to show you how you can test remote webhook callback from 3rd party apps in your local app. Webhooks theory The theory is simple, you create a payment transaction (or any other supported event) in Stripe/PayPal/whatever, then you receive a request, which is sent by 3rd party software. You have to configure webhook URL, so remote applications know where to send requests. But since you develop locally your app cannot be reached from outside. After all, you cannot use localhost as webhook URL. ...

Preparation Let’s start by preparing simple HTML form: 1 2 3 4 <form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="/Upload" method="post"> <input name="Picture" type="file"> <button type="submit">Send!</button> </form> There is one point which should be noted. I’ve set the enctype attribute to multipart/form-data. It is required when you send files via regular forms, but since this will be sent via ajax it’s not needed. I’ve left it as a fallback. ...
One of my StackOverflow answers is about converting string to double. I answered the question long time ago, but it still gets me some upvotes. It looks like this topic requires some more attention.
