jQuery Snippets for Visual Studio 2010

Found it on John Sheehan blog.
I love Visual Studio code snippets. I’ve always wished that Visual Studio had them for HTML and JavaScript so I was thrilled to see that feature added in VS2010. I also love jQuery. jQuery is shipping with VS2010, but that’s about the extent of the official support for it. I thought there needed to be code snippets for jQuery and couldn’t find any, so I created 131 of them and started an open source project. You can find links to the project/downloads/docs below.
If you have any suggestions, issues, etc. Please let me know. You can follow me on Twitter for updates on the project. Thanks to Dave Ward, Jonathan Carter, and Rick Schott for testing them out and providing feedback.

Building Large-Scale jQuery Applications

Today we’re going to look at the end-to-end tools and options you have for building large-scale enterprise jQuery applications. Although jQuery is an excellent JavaScript library and provides a well-designed set of tools for development, it’s focus on staying compact and making the DOM easy to use has meant that it doesn’t provide a significant infrastructure for building large-scale apps.

jQuery does however normalize things across browsers and serves as a great way of doing DOM manipulation. Using it to it’s strengths, you can select some excellent tools to use along-side it as a toolkit for your larger-scale app development.


Some developers have argued in the past that building RIAs using Dojo, MooTools or YUI may be more suitable for large-scale JavaScript applications than simply opting for jQuery, however, I believe you can implement a solution using it that is equally as good without too much extra effort.

In this post we’ll be looking at ways you can put together a toolkit for large-scale jQuery application development by identifying the options you have available at the moment for dependency management, MVC with jQuery, templating, testing, minification and more.
