Chapter 1: Introducing ASP.NET and the .NET Platform

That’s how ASP.NET works. From the web browser’s point of view, there’s nothing special about an ASP.NET page; it’s just plain HTML like any other. All the ASP.NET code is run by your web server and converted to plain HTML that’s sent to the browser. So far, so good: the example above was fairly simple. The next chapter will get a bit more challenging as we investigate some valuable programming concepts.

Getting Help

As you develop ASP.NET web applications, you will undoubtedly have questions that need answers, and problems that need to be solved. The ASP.NET support web site7 was developed by Microsoft as a portal for the ASP.NET community to answer the questions and solve the problems that developers encounter while using ASP.NET. The support web site provides useful information, such as news, downloads, articles, and discussion forums. You can also ask questions of the experienced community members in the SitePoint Forums.8

Summary

In this chapter, you learned about .NET. You also learned of the benefits of ASP.NET and that it’s a part of the .NET Framework.

First, you learned about the components of ASP.NET and how to locate and install the .NET Framework. Then, we explored the software that’s required not only to use this book, but also in order for you or your company to progress with ASP.NET development.

You’ve gained a solid foundation in the world of ASP.NET! The next chapter will build on this knowledge as we begin to introduce you to ASP.NET in more detail, covering page structure, the languages that you can use, various programming concepts, and the finer points of form processing.
