5 VS Code Extensions To Rocket Productivity

Ruben Hernandez Articles, Development Technologies & Tools, Programming Leave a Comment

We all want to write cleaner and faster code. Better code. However, at the same time, we all learn at our own pace, and if you’re like me, discovering new strategies and methods to be more productive can take some time to adapt to and fully adopt. The quickest way I know to improve the coding process is to use effective tools to assist us. Even improving by just 1% is still an improvement!

I’ve assembled a quick unordered list of five great helpers that help me with organization and time and reduce my stress level as a developer. This list will be specific to extensions for VS Code (for the most part).

Blazor Server in .NET 6 – Part One

Ryan Flachman .NET, Articles, Blazor, Blazor Server in .NET 6 Series, C#, Development Technologies & Tools Leave a Comment

In Part 1 of the Keyhole Blazor Server in .NET 6 series, we learned how to create a new Blazor server application with both the CLI and Visual Studio methods. We covered the default template files that are provided when creating a new application and talked through some of the functionality and syntax inside the default components.

This gave us a brief primer for creating our own Character Builder application, so we created a Blazor page, navigated to our new page, and created a component to display data on a Character Page. We were able to see how component lifestyles function when attempting to display our characters as well.

Hopefully, Part 1 provided a helpful outline for navigating the CharactersPage component in further installments of the .NET 6 series. See you in Part 2, where we build on this application to utilize Blazor Protected Browser Storage.

Predicting River Flow with a Supervised Learning Time Series Model

Alex Lagge Articles, Data Science, Machine Learning 1 Comment

In this blog, we will build a flow rate prediction algorithm for the Norfork River in Arkansas. Both farmers and recreationists are heavily dependent on the flow rate of the river. As the river flows faster, the risk of flooding increases and flooding can destroy crops for farmers and ruin vacations for tourists.

My goal with this flow rate prediction algorithm was to give a better idea of what the next 4 days of river flow will look like. Below, I will discuss the data science process that I underwent to make these predictions.

A team of Keyhole consultants works on the large-scale mobile development and modernization initiative from Xamarin to Flutter.

With Keyhole’s help, the client successfully added new features to two mobile applications implemented in Flutter and Xamarin. This effort led to an increase in client revenue and client satisfaction in which the client extended the duration multiple times.
