Getting started

We will be working where the actual code is, where you get things done and where you process the requests from the browser. We will talk about MVC controllers returning views, but also about persisting data across requests, injecting dependencies into our controllers and actions, and how to add localization support to the code. All in all, it's a very important chapter, so I ask for your full attention.

In this chapter, we will be talking about the most important aspects of an MVC application:

• Controllers
• Actions

We will study each of these in the coming sections.
