Angular 10+ Strict Mode

From Angular 10 (experimental) / 11 (default on create new app) you can get strict mode. In summary it reduces the bundle size (by 75%!) and increases the maintainability by disabling you to create objects of type ‘any’ (no untyped types)…

Angular 11+ CLI creates all new workspaces and projects with strict mode enabled.

Strict mode improves maintainability and helps you catch bugs ahead of time. Additionally, strict mode applications are easier to statically analyze and can help the ng update command refactor code more safely and precisely when you are updating to future versions of Angular.

Typescript debug util – Output json structure to console as formatted and sorted properties

Made a Debug util TypeScript class for formatted output to browser console of json objects, also sorted on property keys alphabetically (usage: simplifies text compare between different json structures).

export class DebugUtils {
  ///Outputs object as formatted json string to console.
  public static ToConsoleJson(value: any, message = null) {
    if (message) {
      console.log(message);
    }
    console.debug(JSON.stringify(value, null, 2));
  }

  ///Outputs object as formatted json string to console sorted alphabetically by property keys.
  public static ToConsoleJsonSortedByKey(obj: any, message = null) {
    //sort object keys alphabetically
    var allKeys = [];
    JSON.stringify( obj, function( key, value ){ allKeys.push( key ); return value; } )
    allKeys.sort();
    const sortedJsonString = JSON.stringify( obj, allKeys, 2);
    if (message) {
      console.log(message);
    }
    console.debug(sortedJsonString);
  }

AD Explorer – Windows Sysinternals | Microsoft Docs

Active Directory Explorer (AD Explorer) is an advanced Active Directory (AD) viewer and editor. You can use AD Explorer to easily navigate an AD database, define favorite locations, view object properties and attributes without having to open dialog boxes, edit permissions, view an object’s schema, and execute sophisticated searches that you can save and re-execute.

AD Explorer also includes the ability to save snapshots of an AD database for off-line viewing and comparisons. When you load a saved snapshot, you can navigate and explore it as you would a live database. If you have two snapshots of an AD database you can use AD Explorer’s comparison functionality to see what objects, attributes and security permissions changed between them.
