As discussed in Chapter 1, Setting the Stage, a browser can only understand HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The purpose of the view engine is to generate the HTML code from your view and send it to the browser so that it can understand the content. Primarily, there are two different types of view engines—the Razor view engine and the Web Form view engine. Although these two view engines come out of the box with ASP.NET MVC, you can use any custom view engine.

Overview of this book
The book sets the stage with an introduction to web applications and helps you build an understanding of the tried-and-true MVC architecture. You learn all about views, from what is the Razor view engine to tagging helpers. You gain insight into what models are, how to bind them, and how to migrate database using the correct model. As you get comfortable with the world of ASP.NET, you learn about validation and routing. You also learn the advanced concepts, such as designing Rest Buy (a RESTful shopping cart application), creating entities for it, and creating EF context and migrations. By the time you are done reading the book, you will be able to optimally use ASP.NET to develop, unit test, and deploy applications like a pro.
