A Real World .NET MVC Implementation: Dissecting DevEvents.com
By: Steve Andrews

Models, Views, and Controllers! Oh boy! This Tuesday join us on a journey through the development of a real world .NET MVC application. Nothing hiding behind the curtain. Just another real opportunity to learn and network.

The ASP.NET MVC Framework provides a powerful Model View Controller (MVC) approach to building web applications, and provides separation of concerns, increased testability, control over HTML output, and intuitive URLs. We will start by looking at building a model framework with LINQ to SQL, including validation and model binding. Then, we'll explore a custom generics-based repository and services implementation. Finally, we'll tie it all together with a look at Views and jQuery.
