ASP.NET - Looking for web development tools to supplement Visual Studio
Posted on 2012-12-24
I've built a number of C# and VB.NET apps (console apps, WPF, and Windows Forms). I've also built a number of ASP.NET apps that work fine, but, I'm confident, do not conform with current industry standards. I'm looking to jump into a big ASP.NET project and I want to do it right. This includes Entity Framework, possibly MVC4, HTML5, CSS3 (with SASS), and jQuery (with some simple AJAX). I'm looking for development tools that supplement Visual Studio. I'm also looking for forums where these tools are discussed.

I've never used DW myself, but from what I am seeing, it seems that official support or ASP.NET within DW is no longer supported, and you must install a plugin in order to do ASP.NET.
Honestly, I can't see why you would want to use a 3rd party tool that wasn't specifically designed for the target environment. If it's simply an aversion to Visual Studio, then you might try SharpDevelop.

So, besides those, what kind of tools you think you will need? All this resources are good enough to produce industry-standard web sites.
Adding more tools may complicate your project maintainability and learning curve for your developers
HML5 can be a bit challenging, because not all browser support all HTML5 features and some features are not mature standards. In that case Modernizr (http://modernizr.com/) is a small and very useful library.
