ASP.NET Tutorial
ASP.NET is a development framework for creating web pages and websites using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and server scripts.
ASP.NET supports three different development models:
Web Pages, MVC (Model View Controller), and Web Forms:
|
Web Pages Single page model |
MVC Model-View-Controller |
Web Forms Event-driven model |
||
|
The simplest ASP.NET model. Similar to PHP and classic ASP. Built-in templates and helpers for databases, video, graphics, social media, and more. |
MVC divides web applications into 3 different components: The model handles data The view handles display The controller handles input |
The traditional ASP.NET event-driven development model: Web pages with server controls, server events, and server code. |
Web Pages Tutorial
If you are new to ASP.NET, it is recommended to start learning with Web Pages.
Web Pages is the simplest development model for building ASP.NET websites.
In our Web Pages tutorial, you will learn how to combine HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and server code using the latest Razor server markup syntax with VB (Visual Basic) or C# (C Sharp).
You can also learn how to extend your web pages using programmable Web Helpers (including databases, video, graphics, social media, and more).
