To use layouts, we must create a Razor file to define the default layout for all Razor views and store it in a Shared folder so that it can be easily found by convention. The name of this file can be anything, because we will specify it, but _Layout.cshtml is good practice. We must also have a specially named file to set the default layout file for all Razor views. This file must be named _ViewStart.cshtml.
