ASP.NET MVC Framework

Monday, September 14th, 2009

ASP.NET Model View Controller(MVC) is a new approach for Microsoft developers to use to create dynamic data-driven websites. ASP.NET MVC is a free, fully supported Microsoft Product. It provides total control over your HTML and URLs, enables rich AJAX integration, and facilitates test driven development.

The ASP.NET MVC framework defines a specific pattern to the Web Application folder structure and provides a controller base-class to handle and process requests for “actions”. Developers can take advantage of the specific Visual Studio 2008 MVC templates within this release to create their Web applications, which includes the ability to select a specific Unit Test structure to accompany their Web Application development.

The MVC framework is fully extensible at all points, allowing developers to create sophisticated structures that meet their needs, including for example Dependency Injection (DI) techniques, new view rendering engines or specialized controllers.

As the ASP.NET MVC framework is built on ASP.NET 3.5, developers can take advantage of many existing ASP.NET 3.5 features, such as localization, authorization, Profile etc
