SSW Update - MVC Training for Enterprising Developers PLUS a New Telerik NerdDinner |
|
|
[the cutting edge ]
G'day Developers!
With ASP.NET MVC in its fourth iteration, it has become a mature and trustworthy technology platform. More and more, our clients and SSW developers are finding MVC to be the go-to framework for powerful bespoke web applications.
ASP.NET MVC brings writing software for the web back to its roots, and allows developers to focus on what is important for getting the job done. I really find it a step above the traditional web forms and is now the best way to write websites. The MVC framework is also built to support best practice development as well as all those great enterprise-level requests like testability, scalability, and maintainability.
If you haven’t had a chance to learn how ASP.NET MVC works have a look at our new course run by Damo and Stevo.
Call Marlon or Uly on +61 2 9953 3000 to find out more about how your next project could benefit from ASP.NET MVC.

New training and online sessions!
Enterprise MVC Apps
Cost: $330 +GST PP
Format: 1 day

The Model View Controller design pattern has been an proven and effective way of structuring applications for more than 30 years. In 2007, Microsoft introduced ASP.NET MVC to the world and since then, the framework has evolved into a mature and powerful way of writing dynamic web sites and powerful web applications.
ASP.NET MVC provides a great way of structuring your application, ensuring a clean separation of concerns, easy testability, and ultimate control over markup. It is quickly becoming the go-to framework for writing .Net web applications.
This 2 part course series will be run at 3 capital cities around Australia, with an option to complete the course online where you are unable to attend a location.

Featured Video: DDD Brisbane – Damian Brady: ‘Zero to Everywhere with ASP.NET MVC’
Our very own Damian Brady took the stage at the DDD event in Brisbane to talk ASP.NET MVC
Mobile devices like tablets and phones are quickly becoming the primary way people access the web. So why are so many sites still not designed for them?
With ASP.NET MVC, it’s easier than ever to literally put your website in the palm of everyone’s hand. MVC 3 has many features that allow you to target mobile devices with different layout and even content. The recent developer preview of MVC 4 makes things even easier.
In this demo-heavy session, we show how quick and easy it is to create new MVC sites using the great Visual Studio tooling and Entity Framework 4. We’ll look at some different techniques and third-party libraries that make targeting mobile devices easy, and we’ll touch on ASP.NET MVC 4 and what it brings to the table.
