Microsoft offers code portal for developers
Microsoft has launched a portal for developers to find code snippets, sample applications and other resources, a company official said Monday.
Called the MSDN Code Gallery, the portal also offers pages that describe samples, supporting documents, screen shots and design documents, said S. "Soma" Somasegar, corporate vice president of the Microsoft Developer Division, in his blog.
"One of the most requested things we have heard is that developers want snippets, samples, sample applications and other resources," Somasegar said.
"Code Gallery is, at its core, simply a community-enabled site where we share developer-enabling information and resources that will be integrated into the MSDN experience," he said.
Developers also can find hosted conversations about samples and sample projects and can offer their own contributions, he said. But the site is purely for storage and offers no project management capabilities, said Somasegar. Projects that need management can be offered to Microsoft's CodePlex site, he said.
