Acknowledgments

I want to thank Neil Rowe, Brook Farling, and all at Sams Publishing for another great

experience of working together. Writing a book like this is a very hard work, but working

with people like you makes things easier. Thanks!

My deep, special thanks go to Beth Massi from the LightSwitch team at Microsoft. As the

technical editor of this book, Beth worked with a great passion and attention through

what I wrote and provided great suggestions about what readers needed to know, all the

while sharing her real-world experience. From her contribution to this book, I’ve learned

more about LightSwitch than I could have ever learned on my own. LightSwitch develop-

ers should always remember her words: “In LightSwitch, the only code you write is the

only code you could write, the business logic.” You are a great part of this success, Beth.

My thanks go, as well, to the whole Microsoft Visual Studio LightSwitch team for all the

amazing and important technical discussions we’ve had. In particular, I want to thank

John Stallo, who always answered my technical questions with great care and attention;

Joe Binder, for his helpful suggestions about custom shells; Michael Eng, for important

discussions about integrating LightSwitch with Team Foundation Server 2010; Karol

Zadora-Przylecki and Eric Erhardt, whose explanations about threading and shells have

been so important. This is a great team, and I have learned a lot from all of you.

A special mention goes to my friend Michael Washington, Silverlight MVP and one of the

foremost experts on LightSwitch in the world. He never tires of helping the LightSwitch devel-

oper community. We shared many interesting technical discussions, but most important,

Michael has in mind the noblest meaning of the word community. Many thanks, Michael.

Many thanks to Mei Liang and Lisa Feigenbaum at Microsoft, who are passionate about

their jobs. They have been very helpful to me, especially in connecting with the right

people for information.

There are moments in which you get tired of sleepless nights, and good words from a

special friend are always important, no matter how many times you see or talk on the

phone with them. So, Nicolle Prosser and Karin Meier, thank you!

Thanks to Alfonso Ghiraldini and Francesco Bosticco for their cordiality.

Great thanks also to the Italian subsidiary of Microsoft, which always encourages my

community contributions and important works like this. My special thanks to my MVP

lead Alessandro Teglia, who always does his job with an uncommon passion.

I would like to thank my everyday friends, who are always ready to encourage me and

who share my happiness for my technical successes, even if they are not techies. So,

thanks from the bottom of my heart to Roberto Bianchi, Alessandro Ardovini, Francesca

Bongiorni, Paolo Leoni, Leonardo Amici, and Sara Gerevini. You are my second family,

and I love you all.

Back in August 2010, I and some other fellow MVPs co-founded the one and only Italian

community about Visual Studio LightSwitch, called LightSwitch Tips & Tricks

(www.lightswitch.it). This has been an opportunity to share discussions on the product

and learn something new every day. So, thanks to my fellow Microsoft MVPs Diego

Cattaruzza, Renato Marzaro, and Antonio Catucci, but also to my great friend Marco

Notari, and to all of you readers who trusted me by purchasing this book and who come

to read my blog or my articles daily.

Foreword

I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Alessandro for many years, ever since I started my career

at Microsoft. The first time I ever heard from Alessandro was through my blog contact

form, and we have collaborated on community content and activities ever since. Not long

after he published his first article on MSDN, Alessandro was awarded Microsoft Most

Valuable Professional (MVP) for his exceptional community leadership and technical

expertise. It’s always fun working with Alessandro and to see his excitement and passion

for the developer community, something we both share.

When Visual Studio LightSwitch was announced and the first beta released back in August

2010, Alessandro was right onboard creating a LightSwitch Tips & Tricks community

modeled after his successful Visual Basic Tips & Tricks forums and blogs. His passion for

Visual Studio LightSwitch is as strong as his passion for Visual Basic. Alessandro aims to

make programming easy, fun, and productive, just as we strive to do on the Visual Studio

LightSwitch team. It was an honor for us to have Alessandro as one of our community

rock stars and LightSwitch advocates so early on.

At that time, Alessandro started on a journey to write this book and asked me to be the

technical reviewer. I was very excited to do it, especially because I had just become the

Community Manager for the LightSwitch team and was diving head first into the product

myself. I was particularly excited to join the LightSwitch team because I have a long history

of building business applications and information systems, particularly for the healthcare

industry. I was immediately amazed at what I could build in such a short amount of time

with Visual Studio LightSwitch. I was also impressed with all the details it handles automati-

cally for you, such as CRUD plumbing, concurrency handling, dirty checking, automatic

screen navigation and lookup lists, user permissions, and so much more.

It doesn’t take long to realize how extremely productive you can be with Visual Studio

LightSwitch, regardless of your programming skills. Because of this, and the fact that we

made many enhancements from beta 1 to beta 2 to RTM, it was a challenge at times to

get the book organized in the optimal way. I think we achieved our goal. The book begins

with the beginner in mind and then moves deeper into professional developer topics. I

see LightSwitch developers progressing this way, as well, starting off with minimal coding,

releasing business productivity applications in no time, and becoming the company hero.

Then they may move on to more-advanced customizations as the requirements start to

hit the limits of what you can do out of the box. LightSwitch has an extensive extensibil-

ity model, and when you need it, you can do just about anything. The end of the book

shows you how to take advantage of this.

Alessandro explains Visual Studio LightSwitch in a way that is easy to understand, and his

passion comes through in every paragraph. I know you will find this book filled with

prescriptive guidance and tips and tricks that you can apply to the LightSwitch business

applications you are building today. I really enjoyed reviewing this book, and I’m sure
