- Intro to Visual Studio 2008 – Even if you’re using Visual Studio 2010 this tutorial can still help you with the basics. If you’re in a rush skip forward 4 minutes and 44 seconds into it.
- Intro to C# and VS2008 – Good 15 minute intro to Studio and C#, although the accent can be a little hard to understand.
- SQL and SQL Express Intro – Covers some basics of how to manage databases with these tools.
- MVC in 4 minutes - a video by yours truly on building a quick MVC app.
- Intro to MVC Basics – A good intro (73 minutes long) starting from File->New Project
- Dave Mateer has written an excellent blog post about how to
setup nunit-gui.exe with Visual Studio Express.
I’ll add more to this post as I collect more links and tutorials.

Hello Jonathan
I would like to know what Version Control System (VCS) do you use in Your project:
I saw in the table of content of your book: Test-Drive ASP.NET MVC,
Chapter about TDD and Continuos Integration with MSBuild.
But, about VCS What do you use in ThougWorks: Git, SVN, Mercurial?
Is your VCS repository configured in a Windows Server?
I wait your comment.
A hug.
Hi Valerio,
At ThoughtWorks we use all three. Most projects I've been on have used SVN, but I see most ThoughtWorkers moving towards Git and Mercurial because they liked the distributed version control.
I actually don't show how to use VCS in the book - there just isn't space to do so. However I would recommend either the GIT or SVN Book by Pragmatic Bookshelf as good place to learn.
Hope that helps,
Jonathan
Hi Jonathan,
Thanks for the reply.
About the Git: Your git server is installed in a Windows Server or Linux Server. Or your staff use a private account in github.
And tell me your twitter account if you have.
A lot of ThoughtWorkers who are working on open-source or on their own stuff use github. From my point of view this is one of the great strengths of git is github.
To my knowledge ThoughtWorks doesn't have a private github, but I've heard of some teams using git and then a master subversion repository to handle check-ins.
Frankly, I've never used Git or Mecruial (I guess I'm just not that cool) - so as per installations on Linux and Windows I can't comment.
However, in responding to your comment I found this resource to be very useful for someone coming from an SVN background: http://utsl.gen.nz/talks/git-svn/intro.html
Hope that helps,
Jonathan
