ASP.NET Tutorials
-
Hey everyone, I have a great opportunity at work to get to learn ASP.NET. One of the project I need to work on is to design a web form for software registration. However, I do not know ASP.NET that well... actually not at all. I was wondering if any of you can recommend either books or web sites that you found that was helpful in learning ASP.NET. By the way, I am not asking for a Google search of "Asp.net Tutorials" what I am asking is what tutorials have you found helpful in learning ASP.Net. Not sure if that helps at all but I am using VS2010 and using C# for the behind code. Thanks!

There are three tutorials on W3Schools and they are pretty good. http://www.w3schools.com/aspnet/default.asp[^] However, in working with a lot of developers over the years, you don't want to focus on the specifics of ASP.Net, which is just a server-side HTML-generator, essentially. Since it's generating HTML, and the browser only understands HTML, an ASP.Net developer who isn't an EXPERT in HTML is going to have difficulties. So, my suggestion, to become a good ASP.Net developer, is to go learn HTML5/CSS3/JQuery and how to build pages using only that stuff. THEN, you will be competent at programming the ASP.Net server to emit HTML pages. One of the best tutorial sites on the web is Codecademy - interactive tutorials which run automated tests against your code to check your work. I've done almost all of their tutorials on various languages, and I highly recommend doing their basic web development tutorials, AND the advanced ones about JQuery and you should also pick an API like Parse, and learn that too. This will give you a holistic view of current web programming languages, and a simple introduction to all of them. http://www.codecademy.com/tracks/web[^]

You make a great point about getting familiar with html5/css3/JQuery. I will look into that. I have been using w3schools as that is a wonderful website in learning many great tools. One thing I was unaware of is that code academy site. I will definitely take a look at that. Thank you!

I like WROX books. For example: http://www.wrox.com/WileyCDA/WroxTitle/Beginning-ASP-NET-4-5-in-C-and-VB.productCd-1118311809.html[^]

Thank you I will take a look at that.

Thank you for that! Last Friday I found this great video tutorial on ASP.Net showing me how to do something I need to do on my project! Very informative site! Thanks for the suggestion!
