Ask HN: Developing .NET with poor/no Internet

1 pointsby CtrlAltEngageover 3 years ago
With the rise in remote working and the digital nomad lifestyle, what are your tricks for coping with unreliable Internet?<p>A couple I&#x27;ve come across: - Visual Studio has a Help Viewer that allows you to download offline versions of the docs - There are various ways to get offline backups of stack overflow (e.g. Stacked off)

For docs you can host a web server such as nginx or Microsoft IIS. For instance I stashed a copy of the Python docs on my laptop so I could access them on the go.<p>You have to make peace with build issues. There are systems like maven, pypi, npm, etc. that are endemic. They do a lot of downloading so you need to plan around that.
