What is MVC5?
 Part of ASP.NET
 Hands-on development experience
 Consists of 3 main interchangeable components: Model, View,
Controller
 Actions handled by Routing Engine
 A model is a C# or VB.NET class
 A model is accessible by both controller and view
Model
 A model can be used to pass data from Controller to view
 A view can use model to display data in page.
 View is an ASPX page without having a code behind file
 All page specific HTML generation and formatting can be done
inside view
View
 Can use Inline code (server tags ) to develop dynamic pages
 A request to view (ASPX page) can be made only from a
controller’s action method
 One ASP.NET
 ASP.NET Identity

 Controller is a C# or VB.NET class which inherits
system.mvc.controller
 Controller is a heart of the entire MVC architecture
Controller
 Inside Controller’s class action methods can be implemented
which are responsible for responding to browser OR calling views.
 Controller can access and use model class to pass data to views
 Controller uses ViewData to pass any data to view
