The local Microsoft evangelist team will be demonstrating the ASP.NET MVC Framework in a cookbook-style approach with recipes on how to solve common challenges when developing MVC web applications. No previous knowledge or experience is necessary. We will walk you through the basics on creating views and controllers and by the end of the day show you how to develop end-to-end MVC applications complete with Ajax, authentication, authorization, caching, databinding, logging, persistence, validation, and other common challenges we experience in day-to-day development.
We are now part of the social networking revolution! Join our FaceBook group and network with other members. We will post meeting notices as FaceBook events and continue to use our web site at www.phillydotnet.org.
