Free issue and bug tracking online services review

To fulfill previous post I want to provide my research on free online issue and bug tracking systems available on the Internet. Surprisingly there are very few of them matching my criteria: 5 users minimum, 10000 tickets minimum, closed for public. Here they are:
  • The only totally free & unlimited is defectr.com. It has limited functionality and funny UI but has no users nor projects limitations. My choice #1 for not complex projects.
  • w3spt.com offers 10000 messages/5 users/100Mb-limited complex integrated project tracking system. It has a lot of custom views and reports such as FAQ, Forum, Feedback zone, Knowledge base. I would recommend it for complex but not huge projects.
  • And the last one I want to mention is teamatic.com. It provides simple tracker for 5 persons with 5Mb attachments storage and nice interface. It may be used for small simple projects.

Automated currency conversion in text

I have created a js script to automatically convert currency on page according to the current rate. Lets say I write "$5" and want to show its value in other currencies. I just need to enclose it in a tag with class = "exchange" and voila: $5 . To enable this behavior you need to link jQuery (add <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.1.4.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script> to the head of page) and the script itself (add <script src="https://drclnatj7kvk6.cloudfront.net/currency.js" type="text/javascript"></script> to the bottom of the page). Script is based on http://fixer.io/ and http://openexchangerates.github.io/money.js/ . Fiddle is available here:  https://jsfiddle.net/40rr05fb/42/embedded/result/ . Language and displaying currencies can be easily set. Extending the script is also straightforward.

Choose free online software project tools

I spent a lot of time to choose high-quality online software project tools for free . Some of them are not so "free" other ones have a lot of ads or have low quality. Trying different solutions I chose following: Instant public chat : there is an options. You may create IRC channel on efnet.org or maintain public chat with Skype (BTW Skype supports up to 150 chat members now). Collaborative documents authoring : Google Docs have no competitors in this area. FAQ service : personally I prefer bravenet 's one. Mail list / discussion group : again Google Groups is the best one. Project management : unfortunately I was unable to find any wholly satisfactory project management online service. If you know one please let me know.

Solving MSB6003 Error for ASP.NET Core Docker Image Build

Trying to build a Linux Docker image for ASP.NET Core project with Typescript support leads to a build error "MSB6003: The specified task executable "node" could not be run". The reason is Linux. On Windows, Microsoft.TypeScript.MSBuild includes tsc.exe. On non-Windows platforms, such as in a Docker container, Microsoft.TypeScript.MSBuild does not include ts.exe and instead shells out to a Node for the TypeScript compiler. The official dotnet/sdk Docker images I think included Node at one point in the past, but they no longer include Node. You will either need to make or find a Docker image with both the dotnet-sdk and Node, or configure some multi-stage build involving the official Node image [ 1 ]. Ok, if I know the reason then I will solve it in a minute. I thought. It turned out to be a quest to install the actual version of Node. Official Microsoft's image for dotnet is based on Debian (12 at the moment for .NET 8.0). So, the straight forward way would be u
