Is there a Perfect/Model ASP.Net Website for Learn

Question

I'm looking for a 'model' website/application written in ASP.Net that illustrates current best-practices of architecture, design, code etc. that could be used as a blueprint for development?

I'm working in ASP.Net webforms, but would like to get into MVC so examples from both would be very welcome.

Thanks.

Answer 1

You can have a web site that uses ASP.NET MVC and ASp.NET Webforms at the same time. Google it and you'll find dozens of samples. But if you weant to see an example of how to implement MVC Pattern* in ASp.NET Webforms projects, take a look at: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/aspnet/mvcwebforms.aspx

Answer 2

It is very hard to find full blown best open source asp.net MVC sites. Here's the ones that go beyond beginner concepts.

• Code Camp Server
• Kona
• Orchard
• Kobe... where are you?

Answer 3

Nerd Dinner might be worth a look for MVC, it comes with a 185 page pdf walkthough of the code with screenshots. I think it was built as an example for the book ASP.NET MVC 1.0.

There's a bit more info on Scott Guthrie's blog
