Your First MVC Application

Abstract

The best way to appreciate a software development framework is to jump right in and use it. In this chapter, you’ll create a simple data-entry application using the ASP.NET MVC Framework. We will take things a step at a time so you can see how an ASP.NET MVC application is constructed. To keep things simple, we will skip over some of the technical details for the moment; but don’t worry—if you are new to MVC, you will find plenty to keep you interested. Where we use something without explaining it, we provide a reference to the chapter in which you can find all the details.
