Published on 05 September 2016 (Updated 06 October 2016)

Wild times in the Sitecore world, as the release of v8.2 is has brought a load of new features. One I'm particularly pleased about is that there is now an official NuGet feed for your Sitecore references. I've been asking pretty much every Sitecore employee I've spoken to about doing this for years now, and finally it's here.

So now I've read the release notes and finished a quick chair dance of joy, it's time to dive in and see what it's all about...

Using NuGet for Sitecore dev instances: Uses and conclusions

Published on 04 May 2015 (Updated 25 August 2016)

In my last two posts [first part, second part] I've outlined the results of some research into an approach for how you can package Sitecore with NuGet.

I gave a talk about experiments into how you can put Sitecore into a NuGet package in order to create low-effort developer instances. Due to time constraints I wasn't able to get all of the information I wanted into the presentation, so over the course of my next three posts I plan to write up the key info from the presentation with that extra detail.

Using Nuget for your references to Sitecore DLLs

Published on 07 July 2014 (Updated 25 August 2016)

NuGet is a really useful tool for managing external references for your .Net projects. It's also a tool that the Sitecore community are making good use of, with loads of useful Sitecore extensions available as packages. Plus it's been extended with the ability to deploy things into a Sitecore instance. Another potential use in Sitecore projects (that I've not found much discussion of) is for your references to the Sitecore DLLs themselves. I've been experimenting with this on some of my projects, so thought I'd write down what I've tried.
