The death of the page refresh: Real-time web messaging with SignalR
unassigned
About This Session
Repetitive Refresh Syndrome (RRS), the irresistible urge to continuously refresh a webpage, strikes hundreds every year. Well, OK, not really but why in the age of modern web apps are you still making your users refresh to update a page on your site? Instead, you should use real-time asynchronous messaging between client and server to create a seamless and immediate experience for your users. This talk will introduce you to SignalR, Microsoft’s asynchronous library for adding real-time communication to your web applications. I'll show you using concrete examples, how SignalR makes adding asynchronous messaging to your web application trivial, letting you make your users happier and keep them RRS free.Time: 5:00 PM Saturday Room: 8401
