I’m using Windows so this post will be geared toward Windows users. https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/oauth-2-0-with-restsharp-for-wpf/ Thu, 13 Aug 2020 02:07:19 +0000 https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/oauth-2-0-with-restsharp-for-wpf/ A few weeks ago I had a frustrating time implementing an API where I needed to use OAuth 2.0. Since this was something I had never done before, I began to do research and tests, but I realized that most of the written tutorials I found were for OAuth 1.0 and not for OAuth 2.0. I ended up asking a colleague on another team for help and they recommended I use RestSharp. https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/how-to-deserialize-a-yaml-string-in-yamldotnet-c-snippets/ Mon, 03 Aug 2020 17:21:51 +0000 https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/how-to-deserialize-a-yaml-string-in-yamldotnet-c-snippets/ Small, short, and sweet article of the day. Let’s say you have a YAML string like this: Root: - Id: 1 Type: Aereal Plant: Banyan tree - Id: 2 Type: Aerating Plant: Mangrove [In case you’re the one manually creating the string, use https://jsonformatter.org/yaml-formatter, click on the little checkmark icon and it’ll validate that it’s correct. If it’s not, it’ll let you know what’s up. ] Step 1: Create a Root class to parse. https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/arte-y-desarrollo-de-software-la-uni%C3%B3n-de-dos-mundos/ Sun, 19 Apr 2020 05:16:17 +0000 https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/arte-y-desarrollo-de-software-la-uni%C3%B3n-de-dos-mundos/ Desde que tengo memoria me ha encantado dibujar. A medida que fui explorando el mundo de la internet, cai en un hoyo de conejo llamado “Dolling”, un tipo de pixel art. Tristemente, hoy en dia el dolling ha decaido mucho en popularidad y ahora vive en el recuerdo de mucha jovencitas, pero esta comunidad me ayudo a abrir dos puertas: la programacion y el dibujo. 😱 Una de mis primeras paginitas webs de dolling. https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/xml-for-newbies-this-is-a-generic-explanation-post-with-an-example-that-is-way-too-specific/ Tue, 10 Mar 2020 02:32:33 +0000 https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/xml-for-newbies-this-is-a-generic-explanation-post-with-an-example-that-is-way-too-specific/ Okay so, this article is mainly for my brother since he recently told me that he didn’t understand anything about XML. So, I thought to myself that this would be a great opportunity to write a blog post for newbies like him and that it’ll probably be short and sweet! 😊 In order to center the post around his specific needs, I innocently asked him what he needed to learn the most. https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/when-crisis-strikes/ Fri, 10 Jan 2020 03:01:00 +0000 https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/when-crisis-strikes/ One fine morning, after getting myself some coffee and having an amicable talk with a coworker, I stood up from my seat and headed to to the nearby conference table for our sorta boring daily stand-up. When it was my turn, I said what I worked the day before and what I would focus on for the rest of the day. You know, the usual. Everyone said their part, we saw our burndown chart and capacities, joked that a few of us were in red and our scrum master (who at any moment was going to fall asleep) asked if anybody had anything for the parking lot. https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/story-time-el-d%C3%ADa-que-mi-proyecto-desapareci%C3%B3/ Thu, 12 Dec 2019 01:12:25 +0000 https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/story-time-el-d%C3%ADa-que-mi-proyecto-desapareci%C3%B3/ Esto sucedió hace varios años atrás, era nueva en México y bastante junior. Me contrataron en una empresa cools, me dieron mi primer proyecto grande casi que el mismo día que comencé a trabajar. Quemosión. Pasé varios meses trabajando en ella, tuve mis altos y bajos pero un día, el glorioso Visual Studio (a veces es malvado ese IDE😤) perdió el mapping del proyecto. Le pedí ayuda a uno de mi seniors y él me dijo, bueno vamos darle click a remappear. https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/xaml-un-official-practices-i-do/ Wed, 11 Dec 2019 03:17:22 +0000 https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/xaml-un-official-practices-i-do/ These aren’t official best practices, but more like habits I’ve come to have since I started to work with XAML almost 4 years ago! I’ve done lots of experiments in WPF in terms of readability and maintainability and this is what I ended up with as my own little best practices to follow 🎉. Hopefully they can help you as well. Giving all elements a meaningful name This one is a no brainer but, what I want to offer is my formula: https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/dos-gu%C3%ADas-de-referencias-para-thunkable/ Mon, 02 Dec 2019 02:18:06 +0000 https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/dos-gu%C3%ADas-de-referencias-para-thunkable/ A principios de este año me toco ser mentora de un grupo de chicas para un programa llamado Technovation, cuyo objetivo principal es animar a las niñas a ser parte del mundo de la programación por medio de la creación de una app que resuelva algún problema en el mundo. Para ser honesta, me tocó ser mentora ya casi al final de la época de desarrollo. Las pobres no sabían nada de programación, nos quedaban 4 semanas y yo en la mitad de una crisis existencial. https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/two-web-services-same-objects-its-time-to-disco-how-to-create-a-proxy-class-between-wsdls/ Tue, 26 Nov 2019 04:05:29 +0000 https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/two-web-services-same-objects-its-time-to-disco-how-to-create-a-proxy-class-between-wsdls/ TLDR; Create discomap files with the following command: disco.exe "file:///[Local path to file]\file.wsdl" Use the wsdl.exe to create proxy classes with the following command: wsdl.exe /shareTypes [path to discomap file for ws 1] [path to discomap file for ws 2]... /o: [path to proxy class] /n: [namespace of proxy class] ⭐⭐⭐ THE JOURNEY TO OBTAIN THE KNOWLEDGE TO CREATE THE TLDR; Let’s say that you have two or more web services that you need to use in your app. https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/about/ Mon, 25 Nov 2019 00:00:00 +0000 https://rebelliousunicorn.dev/about/ Sup, I’m Pandita and I’m a software engineer from Venezuela. I’m pretty language agnostic, I currently work with WPF/MVC/XAMARIN/C#. I’ve played with many languages, thanks to my crazy university teachers (❤️). I started web development very young, when I was around 11-12 years old. At the time I had one mission and it was to showcase my pixel dolls and drawings. Which I did! I played a lot with table layouts and very simple CSS to make my sites, but they looked good.
