DigitalPersona Fingerprint Reader with ASP.Net MVC - asp.net-mvc

We are using DigitalPersona U.are.U SDK with JavaApplet in our ASP.Net MVC Web Application.
We are looking for alternative solutions to implement the same. I have searched and found the following ways but none of them meet our requirements.
1. ActiveX (Limited to IE 10 and earlier versions, no support for Firefox).
2. BHO - Browser Helper Objects (also deprecated and not supported in Modern Browsers)
3. Desktop app installed on end user's machine which communicates with the web app and confirms when user has verified fingerprints. (Not a workable solution).
I have heard some people saying that HTML5 Canvas is being used for Bio-metric Devices etc. Any help with finding a working alternative solution will be highly appreciated.
In case you need more information, please post a question below. Thanks.

Sharepoint Online Development

I am a developer with .net.mvc, angular background. We have some application developed in mvc, angular.
My question is
1. Recently my company want to do the development on share point online(not on premise). I want to develop an app either in angular\MVC which can be deployed and accessed from share point. The app basically calls one of our on premise database displays in a grid. It also involves some crud operation.
Can anyone suggest any ideas for this.
Tried reading through some sites but doesn't helped.
Create SharePoint provider hosted add-in so you could use MVC project web template(a .net MVC project), so you could develop based on your existing .net knowledge.
get started
You could host provider-hosted add-in(MVC web) in azure.

Hey Sorry Your question is getting attacked but I believe I have an approach for you.
Normally youd be able to just create a server side webpart but since you are online you wont be able to use MVC and will need to leverage front end solutions or the SPFx Framework.
If you want to go a more pure javascript route you can create an Angular Application like SPJEFF has done. He has built an Angular App that leverages the SharePoint API and runs inside a content and media webpart that you can embed into the page. Please see his blog post for more info. https://www.spjeff.com/2018/12/25/video-angular-2-cli-todo-list/
Your next option is the SPFx route. Its pretty mature for the online community and constantly updated. Heres a quick read on why you should use it. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/spfx/sharepoint-framework-overview

Available technologies for Mobile Web Development

Recently we have finished the development of our application and we have used Spring , Hibernate,Jquery etc in it.
Now today my manager came to me and asked , hey we have to develop a mobile version of our application so that it can work efficiently on mobile devices. He was more focusing on the responsive design.
So, i think in this case we have to change only the view component of
the application. Am i correct ?
What all technologies are available at our disposal that we can use
to develop an efficient mobile version of application ?
I have heard about Spring mobile , jquery mobile etc , but I am not sure from where to start basically i have to give a list of technologies/library/framework that can be used for the mobile web development.
Please help with your valuable suggestions.
First I think I should caveat that this question is only going to get opinion based answers since there are many different ways to support mobile platforms from web applications and the right solution will largely depend upon what platform the majority of your end users will be using and the amount of content you need to display.
If the majority of your users will be pc/tablet based but you also want to support mobiles with the one application then you should take a look at the bootstrap css framework which provides an easy way to create a responsive UI which will look usable on most screen sizes however it won't look like a native mobile app, which from my experience is where jquery/spring mobile have the advantage they make web apps look like native mobile applications although whilst they can viewed on a pc/tablet they won't look great scaled up.
In my experience if you want a great user experience on both mobile and pc you should create 2 separate User Interfaces each one focused on a specific platform otherwise one or other user experience will be compromised in some way.

Is it okay to implement an MVC application with an RFID?

The RFID was used for logging purposes, I've seen some conflict there, but despite of that is it possible to develop a web app using MVC with a RFID? Any articles? Code source or even examples you could suggest?

What happened to the Facebook ASP (MVC) SDK?

The .net SDK is apparently actively being developed.
So why are features being dropped so rapidly? Are they being put into a different project?
There used to be extension DLLs for web specific features (to handle login, etc.) and special MVC features (an authentication attribute) but now they are nowhere to be found.
There are even functions missing from the main client object like the query function.
So my question is - should I be developing these features myself or did they just get moved somewhere?
Thank you
According to one of the guys that maintains the Facebook C# SDK:
The overall goal of Version 6.0 is simplicity. We are reducing the API
surface, improving the documentation, and building out better samples
to make it even easier to build a Facebook app for .Net or any flavor
of Windows.

And though the SDK has really made our life easier in making Facebook request, I have not seen much improvement in the documentation as of yet.

How to develpo the web based application that can be viewed on the mobile phone in asp.net(vs2008)

sir
I am the beginner of the asp.net,for my current project i need to develop a mobile web application using asp.net 3.5 that can be viewed on an Phone and all other browser what to support it, but there is no longer a template in VS2008 to enable mobile development. please give some more idea about that sir,Thank you.
You would need to create a page that is specific to each mobile browser you want to target, or create one that works on the lowest common feature set across all.
Using ASP.NET or any other server based framework should make any difference, it is more how you render it and what functionality you provide to the limited mobile browsers that is key.
