ASP.NET MVC 3 is the latest sensation in the world of Microsoft Web development. It represents a paradigm shift in the way ASP.NET applications are designed and built. Modular, test-driven development and easier implementation of design-patterns and architectural concepts make it an easy choice for web developers.
What is perhaps not so easy is to see how ASP.NET MVC can best be put to work in the real world where you need it to work efficiently alongside the other technologies that you employ. This book helps you with this, placing ASP.NET MVC into a realistic context. It begins by creating a fully-working blogging application from the ground up using the very latest .NET tools and development practices. Here you'll see how ASP.NET MVC 3 fits into the architecture of your project and interacts with the other technologies that are vital for your project's success.
Once you have a good understanding of how the technologies work, you'll move on to a deep-dive into ASP.NET MVC 3 to provide you with a treasure trove of supporting information and background knowledge that will help you to make informed development decisions. By the end of this book you will be in an excellent position to make sense of the many buzzwords that surround ASP.NET MVC web development and will be able to proceed confidently with your own projects.
