ASP.NET MVC Framework at South Florida Code Camp
by David Hayden, Microsoft MVP C#
Next week is a busy week. I will be speaking at the Day of Patterns & Practices in Tampa on Thursday and at the South Florida Code Camp on Saturday.
At the South Florida Code Camp I will be talking about the new ASP.NET MVC Framework. This is a gentle introduction for those of you who are mainly familiar with ASP.NET Webform Development. We will be discussing quite a bit, including:
- ASP.NET PostBack Model
- ASP.NET MVC Restful Model
- Model-View-Presenter vs. Model-View-Controller
- Routing
- Controllers
- Views
- View-Controller Communication
- Extensibility: Dependency Injection, Alternate View Engines
- MVCToolkit
- MVCContrib
- AJAX
and anything else we can fit into 70 minutes :)
I hope to spend about 15 minutes walking you through an application I created using the ASP.NET MVC Framework that shows you tips, proven practices, and the use of various technologies end-to-end ( LINQ To SQL, Enterprise Library, Composite Web Application Block, ObjectBuilder, jquery, etc. ). We will talk about how we can easily migrate the application over to your choice of technologies, whether it be ADO.NET Entity Framework, NHibernate, ActiveRecord, SubSonic, Castle Windsor, Spring.NET, etc. The application looks as follows:

I look forward to seeing you at the South Florida Code Camp!
