Building ASP.NET Core Apps Using Razor Pages

Razor Pages were added to ASP.NET Core a few releases back and are now the default way to build applications. They merge some of the simplicity of the old WebForms model with the testability of MVC. This talk will explore how to quickly build applications using Razor Pages

WebForms suffered from a lot of serious problems mostly related to attempting to fit the paradigm of desktop application development to the web. Even in a world filled with leaky abstractions, this one was particularly poros. It’s been 20 years since WebForms and we’ve gone through a whole cycle using MVC concepts. It is about time that we come around again to the simplicity and rapid development of WebForms but this time using paradigms closer to the web and with better support for modern concepts like separation of concerns and testability.
