Things to know: Unified MVC & Web API Frameworks

Moiz Khan Oct 07, 2020

One of the most significant architectural evolution publicized globally was the unification of MVC and API frameworks. The incorporation of the two frameworks has led to a revolution in the web development industry.

The combination of MVC, Web API, and Webpages is now a single programming network, known as MVC 6, which takes away the overlap between the three frameworks. Moreover, ASP.NET MVC 6 can now function as self-hosted like Web API 2 and Signal R.

ASP.NET MVC 6 is regarded as one of the most successful web application frameworks by Microsoft. With every update, a wide range of remarkable features are incorporated that help designers develop highly-scalable and premium applications.

But, before we jump on its functions, let’s take a quick overview of the application.

What is ASP.NET MVC 6?

The ASP.NET MVC 6 is a stack of three frameworks, which are unified and merged into a single combination. The framework serves to create web applications with any of them, and each of them provides a unique template. Thus, give an impression of being disjoint and distinctive to everyday developer.

The framework also comes with other features, which are highlighted as follows:

  • json: It is a new file that manages all the dependencies related to a project. All the references for the project mentioned in the file. The citations get added once the file sets aside.
  • Dependency Injection: It is built-in in this particular version and helps to manage all the necessary components in the application for instance creation.
  • cs: The version has replaced Global.assax, which works to provide methods to register dependency for the application.
  • json: The config.json contains the variables of the configuration environment that include the Database connection string.

 

Functions of unified MVC and Web API frameworks:

With the framework, there are countless characteristics that overcome the challenges and boost your performance.

·         Support for cross-platform:

The establishment of a unified MVC and Web API framework helps you to create applications and set them up at macOS, Windows, and Linux.  It is because the Microsoft team has put an immense amount of struggle in creating Linux, known as the top-tier option for operating ASP.NET.

 

Top-class performance:

The software is one of its kind and regarded as the fastest web application software accessible in the industry.

·         Asynchronous programming patterns:

The software has excellent support for utilizing asynchronous programming patterns, which include in all common.

·         Razor pages:

With the introduction of the framework, we can access new Razor pages. They help to extend the framework and allow encapsulating the controller and model aspects of a page combined with two-way binding. Moreover, categorized as replacements for WebForms.

 

·         Multiple development modes:

The software comes with an altered background feature. It permits the developer to differentiate between the parts of code concerning performance in development and production. Earlier, the usual way was applied.

In conclusion, the unified MVC and Web API framework is a well-appreciated version as compared to its previous type. The blog above has discussed some new features which you don’t want to miss.
