HIGHLIGHT
An insider's perspective on the ASP.NET MVC framework, a highly-anticipated
product that forms the basis for the next version of ASP.NET.
DESCRIPTION
The MVC pattern is widely accepted as the best practice for web development
and is at the core of Rails, Zend Framework, and other modern web dev tools.
Microsoft's new ASP.NET MVC Framework offers a fully-supported way for
developers to implement MVC in ASP.NET.
ASP.NET MVC in Action is a comprehensive guide to MVC-based development
for Microsoft ASP.NET developers. It offers a clearly-written introduction
both to the ASP.NET MVC Framework and to the MVC approach. The focus
is on creating real, maintainable web applications, guiding readers from first-use
through real-life scenarios.
ASP.NET MVC in Action shows readers how to test each piece of an ASP.NET
application using the principles of test-driven development. This book assumes
that readers know how to build a standard ASP.NET application and presents
most examples in C#.
KEY POINTS
Expert insider authors have been working with ASP.NET MVC since well
before it was publicly announced
Written for the working ASP.NET developer
Introduces test driven development and Agile processes which may be
unfamiliar to Microsoft developers
MARKET INFORMATION
Microsoft's ASP.NET is one of the most popular web development tools available,
but it is no longer on the leading edge of innovation. Rails, Django,
Seaside, and other frameworks have challenged Microsoft to improve ASP.NET.
ASP.NET MVC represents the first major step in ASP.NET in many years, and
will be embraced rapidly by ASP.NET developers.
