Getting Started with ASP.NET MVC 5

ASP.NET Core MVC with controllers and views. Razor Pages is a new alternative in ASP.NET Core 2.0, a page-based programming model that makes building web UI easier and more productive. We recommend you try the Razor Pages tutorial before the MVC version. The Razor Pages tutorial:
  • Easier to follow.
  • Covers more features.
  • Preferred approach for new application development.

Getting Started

Start by installing and running Visual Studio 2017.
Visual Studio is an IDE, or integrated development environment. Just like you use Microsoft Word to write documents, you'll use an IDE to create applications. In Visual Studio there's a list along the bottom showing various options available to you. There's also a menu that provides another way to perform tasks in the IDE. (For example, instead of selecting New Project from the Start page, you can use the menu and select File > New Project.)

Creating Your First Application

Click New Project, then select Visual C# on the left, then Web and then select ASP.NET Web Application (.NET Framework). Name your project "MvcMovie" and then click OK.
In the New ASP.NET Project dialog, click MVC and then click OK.
Visual Studio used a default template for the ASP.NET MVC project you just created, so you have a working application right now without doing anything! This is a simple "Hello World!" project, and it's a good place to start your application.
Click F5 to start debugging. F5 causes Visual Studio to start IIS Express and run your web app. Visual Studio then launches a browser and opens the application's home page. Notice that the address bar of the browser says localhost:port# and not something like example.com. That's because localhost always points to your own local computer, which in this case is running the application you just built. When Visual Studio runs a web project, a random port is used for the web server. In the image below, the port number is 1234. When you run the application, you'll see a different port number.
Right out of the box this default template gives you Home, Contact and About pages. The image above doesn't show the Home, About and Contact links. Depending on the size of your browser window, you might need to click the navigation icon to see these links.

ASP.NET Core - MVC Setup

Here we will set up the MVC framework in our FirstAppDemo application. We will proceed by building a web application on top of the ASP.NET Core, and more specifically, the ASP.NET Core MVC framework. We can technically build an entire application using only middleware, but ASP.NET Core MVC gives us the features that we can use to easily create HTML pages and HTTP-based APIs. To setup MVC framework in our empty project, follow these steps − Install the  Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc  package, which gives us access to the assemblies and classes provided by the framework. Once the package is installed, we need to register all of the services that ASP.NET MVC requires at runtime. We will do this inside the  ConfigureServices  method. Finally, we need to add middleware for ASP.NET MVC to receive requests. Essentially this piece of middleware takes an HTTP request and tries to direct that request to a C# class that we will write. Step 1  − Let us go to the NuGet package manager by ri
