Building for multiple Sitecore versions with .NET Core
One of the most important factors in authoring a successful Sitecore Marketplace module is maintaining compatibility with new Sitecore versions.
This post goes over how to utilize .NET Core's simplified csproj footprint and implicit package dependency resolution to build your project against multiple Sitecore versions in one step. Automate the dev-ops part of maintaining modules so you can just have fun and focus on the code.
Custom Sitecore pipeline processor to allow dynamically binding multiple placeholder settings items to a single placeholder key
Building upon the Placeholder Overrides functionality described in the last post, this post describes a small customization that enables any page template to bind multiple placeholder settings items to the same placeholder key. This is very useful in multi-site implementations.
How to structure placeholder keys and settings in a multi-site Sitecore implementation

Extending Coveo's "Numeric Slider Facet" component to search over multiple fields - Part 2
Today we will finish building a custom Coveo slider facet that filters based on whether the numeric range of a Sitecore item overlaps with the numeric range specified by the user. In Part 1 we extended an out-of-the-box Hive slider facet with extra fields and validation by creating Sitecore items and code-behind classes for the new rendering and settings. Today we will focus on my favorite part of the customization process - the JavaSript portion.
