Dependency injection, providers and ASP.NET MVC
I've been thinking a lot about all of the frameworks we have now to use with our, uh, frameworks. There's a framework to solve every problem. Dependency injection frameworks are of particular interest to a lot of people because they make unit testing...
Under the covers of HTML helpers in ASP.NET MVC
Coming from the Webforms world, the thing you might miss most when using ASP.NET MVC is the ability to create rich Web controls that generate all kinds of markup and do nifty things. HTML helpers do similar work, even if their plumbing is different, and...
Book project follow up
I'm still getting e-mail about the book I started to write and posted chapters for. Now that ScottGu has formally announced the progress on v2 of ASP.NET MVC, hopefully it's more obvious now why I put off the project. As I said previously, I had to prioritize...
Webforms vs. MVC, the desire to rewrite everything, an unexpected benefit
I read a good post today about the silly wars that go on in versus debates, in this case the arguments about whether to use Webforms or MVC for ASP.NET . I kind of saw this storm coming when people started describing themselves as part of the alternative...
ASP.NET MVC book: Not going to happen (for now)
After a great deal of soul searching ( and a PDF draft of chapter 1 posted ), I've decided that I'm not going to follow through on this book. I've got a total of four chapters, two of which are at 75%, but there are a number of reasons that I've decided...

ASP.NET MVC: From Webforms to MVC by Jeff Putz The following is a barely-edited draft from the forthcoming book that will explore Microsoft’s ASP.NET MVC framework from the view of a traditional Webforms developer. This chapter goes over the basic plumbing...
ASP.NET MVC, front-to-back advantage revisited
A couple of month ago, I wrote a post about the surprising advantage of MVC as an enabling technology for front end folks . The more I work with it, the more I feel that it's the key advantage to using MVC. Given my rants on why I think the user experience...
ASP.NET MVC: From Webforms to MVC - Introduction
This is the introduction for the book I've decided to write. I'm not at all sure how it will see paper yet, and I'm OK with that. I've been looking into self-publishing or on-demand publishing and I'm fairly convinced that it's a real option. I'm still...
ASP.NET MVC book proposal
I'm not sure if it's the fact that I'm not working or what, but I'm very seriously thinking about writing another book. Not only that, but if I do it, it will be an ASP.NET MVC book. Some have suggested to me that the space is already too crowded. In...
