An introduction to ASP.Net MVC 4.0 - Nikolaos Kantzelis ASP.Net Blog. I have been looking into ASP.Net MVC 4.0 lately and I thought it would be a nice idea to create a small ASP.Net MVC 4.0 application and write a post about it. So this is going to be a rather long post that will show you with a hands-on example how to build a simple ASP.Net MVC 4.0 application that will list information about a database that holds information about footballersenable the user to create a new footballer enable the user to edit an existing footballerenable the user to delete an existing footballerenable the user to search through the footballers Have a look in another post of mine regarding ASP.Net MVC 3.0, here .In that post you will find some information on what a Controller,View,Model are and what their relationship is. Before we begin let's have a look at the tools you need to install in your machine.
I have Visual Studio 2011 beta Ultimate installed in my machine.When I downloaded this, MVC 4.0 was also installed. I encourage you to use Visual Studio 2011 beta. Click Add. Announcing release of ASP.NET MVC 3, IIS Express, SQL CE 4, Web Farm Framework, Orchard, WebMatrix. I’m excited to announce the release today of several products: ASP.NET MVC 3 NuGet IIS Express 7.5 SQL Server Compact Edition 4 Web Deploy and Web Farm Framework 2.0 Orchard 1.0 WebMatrix 1.0 The above products are all free.

ASP.NET MVC 3 is a significant update that brings with it a bunch of great features.
Razor ASP.NET MVC 3 ships with a new view-engine option called “Razor” (in addition to continuing to support/enhance the existing .aspx view engine). You can learn more about Razor from some of the blog posts I’ve done about it over the last 6 months JavaScript Improvements Improved Validation NuGet Summary. Controller.HandleUnknownAction Method (System.Web.Mvc) Beyond HTML: Returning JSON and XML Data From Your MVC Endpoints > Using MVC to Represent Resources. You adopted MVC to get better control over your URL structure. Then you’re asked to provide REST access over the same data. Instead of developing a new API and set of endpoints that mirrors what you already have, you can augment the existing application to respond to requests for JSON and XML as well as handle data updates and deletes. Scott Seely shows you how. If your web application is like many others built today, you are busy looking at how to add JSON and XML-based REST services to that application.
Many of your fellow web developers are adopting ASP.NET MVC because it offers the ability to create readable URL structures for your applications. Wouldn’t it be great if, after creating the primary MVC application, you could reuse those pages to create the REST services too? After all, you are already building applications with beautiful user interfaces (UIs) that people understand how to access. Certainly, that was true for me. Getting Resources in Context Summary.
