Adam's 2015 in review
I've come to really enjoy writing these end-of-year review posts. I find it's not until I'm looking back that I realise just how huge a year it's been, and how much we've achieved – and 2015 was no exception! This year SSW doubled our YouTube presence, we've kept working and upgrading to the best and greatest tools and tech, presented at some awesome conferences, played with some awesome gadgets, won the MAPA award from Microsoft, published several ebooks, we even opened a new SSW office... and I'm sure I'm forgetting some things!
SSW TV overview
SSW TV is the SSW YouTube channel where we publish videos of presentations, interviews, tutorials, webinars, product reviews, and more – all made by developers, for developers. When I wrote my 2014 review at about this time last year, SSW TV had more than half a million views, more than 4,000 subscribers and more than 3 million minutes watched.
This year we've all but doubled those stats.
Keep reading to find out how much SSW TV has grown - and what else Adam got up to in 2015.

ASP.NET 5 De-bamboozled - Lessons I wish someone else had learned
The change from ASP.NET 4 to ASP.NET 5 brings a whole lot of awesome to web development, but it's the biggest change since MVC was introduced and the learning curve is massive.
We shipped 2 enterprise apps on ASP.NET 5 while it was still in Beta (wow, that hurt). Don't spend weeks trying to understand how to get your new project right.
This session isn't just 'hello world', it's the stuff we wish we'd known in those first head-scratching weeks.
Come along and learn what we took months to figure out in just 2 hours.
