I am loving NuGet, and as it matures it just becomes more of a paradigm shift. How do you program without this thing? What was development like before it? So what are NuGet packages I am usually including in my projects. Here is a list of the them below, in no particular order.

  • Depot (Common Caching)
  • Dynamic Expression API (LINQ Extensions)
  • ELMAH on XML (Error Logging)
  • FileDB (a leap in storing files)
  • SimpleMembership
  • ValueInjecter
  • WebActivator
  • RhinoETL
  • FluentMigrator
  • RestfulRouting
  • JQuery
  • FluentValidation
  • Entity Framework Code First
  • NUnit
  • Moq
  • WaTin
  • RestSharp
  • MvcFlash (yes I am bias :P )

Great respect goes out to these projects and their contributors, except MvcFlash cause I don’t want to strain my arm patting myself on the back :P .

Update: How could I forget about MvcMailer.
