| This session was recorded live at CodeStock 2011 - codestock.org You've finally done it. You sold it to your fellow developers. You fought with your boss and finally won his buy-in. You're finally making the switch to ASP.NET MVC. You promised your boss more features, less bugs, and faster turn-around. But there's a surprise waiting for you. ASP.NET MVC is much less a "framework" than a set of building blocks that you can use to create an actual framework. If you don't invest in building up a proper framework for your application, you will encounter maintenance woes that make even WebForms look tame. In this session, I'll show you how to take full advantage of what ASP.NET MVC brings to the table while creating a robust, extensible application framework. You'll see how to push common concerns into your framework and away from your day-to-day development activities. Topics we'll cover include establishing conventions for generating your UI, how to leverage new dependency-injection features of MVC 3, separating concerns with an application bus, and we'll even cover some jQuery black magic. |
