  10. Which Do People See As Microsoft?

  11. Ruby On Rails • Lightweight • Fast • Encourages UI creativity

  12. Webforms == Heavy Abstraction • SUPER efficient for developers • Controls • Stateful • Event Driven • Hides nature of web • HTTP • Stateless • Rapid development stressed over creative UI

  13. MVC == Less Abstraction • Less efficient for developers • NO controls • NO state • NO events • Exposes nature of web • HTML/CSS/Javascript/jQuery/HTTP • Creativity/control stressed over rapid development

  14. Why Choose MVC? • Separation of concerns • Test Driven Development (Testability anyway) • UI creativity • Work more with HTML/CSS/JavaScript • No controls to rely on

  15. Why Choose WebForms? • Rapid Application Development • Tons of 3rd party controls • Don’t need to learn as much HTML/CSS/Javascript • Existing Websites
