ASP.NET Web Forms:
ASP.NET Web Forms is a part of the ASP.NET framework for building web applications. It uses a page-based programming model that allows developers to create dynamic web pages using a drag-and-drop, event-driven model. ASP.NET Web Forms also provides a rich set of server-side controls that can be used to create sophisticated user interfaces.
Example:
Let’s say you want to create a simple web page that displays a list of products. With ASP.NET Web Forms, you can create a page with a DataGrid control that displays the list of products. You can also add event handlers to the DataGrid to allow users to add, edit, or delete products.
ASP.NET MVC:
ASP.NET MVC is a web application framework that uses the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern. It provides a clear separation of concerns between the business logic and the presentation layer. ASP.NET MVC also provides full control over the rendered HTML, allowing you to create highly customized and optimized user interfaces.
Example:
Let’s say you want to create a web page that displays a list of products. With ASP.NET MVC, you can create a controller that retrieves the list of products from the database and passes it to a view. The view can then be rendered as HTML and sent to the browser. You can also create custom HTML helpers to generate the HTML for the product list.
