ASP.NET MVC 2 - Lighter Project Templates

ASP.NET Team Blog
01 February 2011

Check out these useful updates to the DevExpress ASP.NET MVC 2 Project Templates.

Hybrid Empty Project Template

To match the new MVC 3 project templates, we've updated our ASP.NET MVC 2 project templates to make them lighter.

Visual Studio 2010 allows you to create either a new empty web project or one with a basic layout and login capabilities. And it provides a lot of other project template types too.

Because we didn't want to include too many new project templates, our new MVC 3 project templates are a compromise between the full and empty VS2010 project templates.

Here's what the new project template looks like:

In the updated project template, there is:

  • one master page
  • one empty view page (Index)
  • one Home controller with an action for the Index view
  • and no Login functionality (like our previous project template)

Of course, all of the necessary scripts, style sheets and references are added for you to use DevExpress MVC Extensions. This makes it easier for you to start with a clean MVC 2 web project to use DevExpress MVC Extensions.

Available In v2010.2.5

These new project templates are available starting with minor release DXperience v2010.2.5.
