ASP.NET MVC Sales Dashboard Demo Application

-
As I was doing some research on chart controls to be integrated in ASP.NET MVC, I found a working from Shield UI which is MVC 4 regarding Sales Dashboard. As I was running the application to the browser, only the left container shows the chart.
The right and bottom part does not show anything. It seems the remaining chart samples will be manually shown to the browser by entering the correct URL. To solve this, I added a ViewModel class, modified the HTML markup in the Index view and modified the codes in Home Controller. See updates below:

    {
        public IEnumerable<QuarterlySales> Quarterly_Sales { get; set; }
        public IEnumerable<SalesByProduct> Sales_By_Products { get; set; }
        public IEnumerable<PerformanceData> Performance_Data { get; set; }        
    }
}

            modelSalesDashboard = new SalesDashboardViewModel();
            modelSalesDashboard.Quarterly_Sales = QuarterlySales.GetData();
            modelSalesDashboard.Performance_Data = PerformanceData.GetDataByQuarter("Q1");
            modelSalesDashboard.Sales_By_Products = SalesByProduct.GetDataByProductAndQuarter("Men", "Q1");
 
            return View(modelSalesDashboard);
        }}

Good day to all! Here's an example of a WPF CRUD (Create,Update and Delete) project using the DataGrid control, ADO.NET Entity Framework 6.x, C#.NET and Model–View–Viewmodel(MVVM) architectural pattern. This post was based from this tutorial WPF CRUD With DataGrid, Entity Framework And C#.NET except that we are now using the MVVM framework. The steps below are pretty straightforward and easy to follow. I. Project Setup 1. Add a table called Students in you database. The complete script is found in this post WPF CRUD With DataGrid, Entity Framework And C#.NET 2. Create a WPF Project and add four folders called DataAccess, Model, View and ViewModel. 3. Your project structure may look similar with the screenshot provided below. II. Coding The Model and Repository Class 1. Inside the Model folder, add an ADO.NET Entity Data Model that connects to the Students table in your database. On my part, I named it StudentModel . 2. For the connectionstring name in App.config file, I ...

TypeScript Error Or Bug: The term 'tsc' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.

Good Day Gents! During this free-time I started setting up Node.js on my machine as part of my career goals which is learning new frameworks in preparation for new projects. So the first thing I did was to install TypeScript language to get myself familiar with Angular 2+. After I finished setting up TypeScript, I then created a simple HelloWorld program and ran the application through Visual Studio Code using the "tsc: build - tsconfig.json" command. I encountered an error which says "The term 'tsc' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again." Below are the details on my machine and packages installed:   - Operating System: Windows 10 Pro   - Node.js: 14.16.0   - npm version: 6.14.11   - Typescript: 4.2.3 (using command: "npm install -g typescript") After doing some research and reading th...

Invalid nested tag div found, expected closing tag input

-
Hello all, I've been experimenting on how to print html document using the said 3rd party software called iTextSharp . iTextSharp is a popular tool and has several examples on the internet regarding integration to the project and occurring issues. One of the issue I encountered is Invalid nested div tag and is expecting a closing tag input . As I trace back my html source, the tags are well-formed except that they are self closing tags such as <input>, <hr>, <img>, <br> or the like. These tags when passed to an action method as string are not properly closed and thus an issue is thrown by iTextSharp's XMLWorkerHelper's ParseXHtml() method. <img src= "~/Images/success.png" /> <input type= "hidden" name= "OrderStatusHTML" /> <input type= "submit" id= "btnSubmit" value= "Export to PDF" class= "btn btn-success" /> The solution I came up with is to fi...
