In this article, I am going to explain Asp.Net Core 7.0 MVC, Asp.net Core MVC features. The Latest version of Asp.Net Core MVC is Asp .Net Core 7.0 MVC and how to create a simple ASP.NET Core 7.0 MVC application and run.


ASP .NET Core 7.0 MVC version was released on November 08, 2022. Visual Studio 2022 version 17.4.0 is required to develop ASP.Net Core 7.0 MVC web application. It focuses on being unified, modern, simple, and first. Asp.NET Core 7.0 MVC will be supported for only 18 months as standard-term support (STS).

Some New Features of Asp.Net Core 7.0 MVC
When using null state checking, Nullable page and view models are now supported to improve the experience.
Improvements to endpoint routing, link generation, and parameter binding.
Various improvements to the Razor compiler to improve performance.
The IParsable<TSelf>.TryParse using in MVC & API supports binding controller action parameter values.

What is Asp.Net Core MVC?
The ASP.NET Core MVC framework is a lightweight, open source, highly testable presentation framework for building web apps and APIs using the Model-View-Controller design pattern.

It is an architectural pattern that separates the representation and user interaction. It is divided into three sections Model, View, and Controller; this is called separation of concerns.

Model
It represents the real world object and provides data to the view. It is a set of classes that describes the business logic. Also defines business rules for data means how the data can be changed and manipulated.

View
The view is responsible for looking and feel. It represents the UI components like CSS, JQuery, and Html etc. It is only responsible for displaying the data that is received from the controller as the result.

Controller

The controller is responsible to take the end user request and load the appropriate “Model” and “View”.

Note

  • User interacts with the controller.
  • There is one-to-many relationship between controller and view means one controller can mapped to multiple views.
  • Controller and view can talk to each other.
  • Model and view can not talk to each other directly. They communicate to each other with the help of controller.
