So I am looking at ASP.NET MVC

leppie

Although I do not know much about it yet, I just started 'playing' with it, and it looks very nice indeed. :) Any thoughts, tips, suggestions?

I wish I could be looking at it, but right now, I am in the middle of a web project, not the start of one.

It is pretty good. Probably the biggest tip I can give right now is put a lot of thought in beforehand as to whether or not you want to go with this architecture BEFORE you start developing a site. There are certain situations where old-style ASP.NET is a better choice than ASP.NET MVC, e.g. you have a heavy investment in ASP.NET custom controls and you need to keep offering them.

Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

This will actually be a 'technical management' section/subsite, so no custom controls made yet.

I've read an article on MSDN Magazine and it seemed good to me, especially compared to RoR*. I hope I'll be able to test-drive it soon in a small real-world project (anyway, I'd like to wait for the final release). *) Never really learned it, I just took a look at it a while ago.

I see nothing in it which would make me switch from monorail[^]

It beats the WebForms crap hands-down. I'm just waiting to see how much new crap they manage to stuff into it by the time it's released.

After a few hours of playing, it's looks a lot better than the postback model.

Yes. I'm starting to suspect that the whole postback mess was just a ruse, a way of lowering our expectations so severely that they could roll out something simpler and be proclaimed brilliant. :suss: :rolleyes:

I developed a blog-like engine using Linq to Sql and Asp.Net MVC last week and wow the simplicity is amazing.

And clean. Its really fun digging into some introductory ruby on rails tutorials and then digging into MVC or monorail to see a asp.net implementation of ruby on rails. I was hoping to use monorail for the current project I'm working on but once we decided to use a 3rd party shopping cart it kind of hosed that idea.
