JetBrains .NET Tools Blog

In cooperation with Microsoft, join JetBrains’ Hadi Hariri for the free online event, Refactoring Legacy Code Bases using Microsoft Visual Studio and ReSharper. The session is intended for architects, designers and professional developers.

Refactoring Legacy Code Bases
Wednesday, May 8, 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM Pacific Time (GMT-08:00)

Not everyone has the possibility of working on Greenfield projects or doing TDD or BDD. Many of us often end up having to work with legacy code bases that have little notion of what SOLID design principles are and unit tests are non-existent. It can be daunting to have to maintain these types of systems. However, with a little bit of effort, we can try and make the best of the situation. We can combine some well-known refactoring techniques, along with code analysis and design concepts to improve the quality of the code.

Registration is required to attend. We hope to see you there!

A repeat of last year’s promo, Microsoft Russia is once again offering a 60% discount on selected Visual Studio 2010 SKUs for Russian developers and SMBs, and JetBrains provides an awesome extension to this bargain: ReSharper at 2900 RUR for Russian developers.

Note that this time, a ReSharper license comes with a free upgrade to ReSharper 6.

The pricing is available until June 30, so if you’ve missed the offer last year, now it’s time for action!

Here’s a quick note regarding the previously announced Visual Studio + ReSharper limited offer for Russian users.

Originally scheduled to last until late November, the offer has been extended until December, 31, so if you’re a SMB from Russia and you’re looking to extend your .NET toolset, you can still consider this opportunity.
