This week I was looking for a way to do live reloading in ASP.NET Core projects.
Don’t judge me, but I actually never cared that much about live reloading, I lived life in a constant state of stopping and starting applications every after a few changes. What changed is that after working with React for a few months I really liked the idea of reflecting changes from your code in the application instantly (well, almost).
Hello! So, here I am again! Sorry for the delay, almost 2 months since I last posted here. Anyway, I here today to talk about CORS and JSONP. Basically I will introduce the terms and cite some implementation examples using JavaScript and ASP.NET WebAPI (because I am a .NET fan, of course!).
First I will talk about JSONP. The acronym stands for “JSON with padding”. We have a lot of resources telling about the concept in the internet today, so I will be short. “JSON with padding” it’s basically a hack that makes possible inter-domain requests. And that’s it. This hack consists from return a function (often named ‘callback’ or whatever you want) that receives a JSON parameter like the following.
