Lessons in ArcGIS pro SDK development
A few years ago ESRI pushed a new line of product, which they stated, will not replace the elderly ArcMap for quite some while, oh boy time flies when you have fun. Unmistackingly currently ESRI are pushing forward and ArcPro becomes the goto tool for the “mainstream” tasks.
For those which had the “privilege” of developing ArcObjects framework for ArcMap development, it is a horror of Interfaces and COM interop glued into a wrapped DLLs on .NET for which you just make jumps in documentation or learn it by heart — extremely time-consuming. ArcPro, on the other hand, is a relatively new experience that share naming conventions with other frameworks in the ESRI line ( javascript, runtime, and even android naming are quite similar).
In this post, I will cover 2 main aspects
- Unit testing of ArcGIS Pro add-in
- Use of Redux pattern in this flow
