Web development has been rapidly evolving over the years. The features and functionality
that today’s web developers are asked to produce are exponentially more involved
and complex than they were just a few years ago. As the demands of today’s business and
commercial software grow, so too must the power of the tools and development frameworks
developers use every day.
Even in the years since ASP.NET was first introduced, it has undergone dramatic growth in
terms of ease of use, power, flexibility, scalability, and time to market. Some of the largest
websites hosted on the Internet have ASP.NET and the .NET Framework to thank for their
speed, power, and scalability including Dell, MySpace, and Microsoft.
Whether you plan on building the next greatest social network, a simple blogging site, or
a year-long project to build a suite of Line of Business applications for the enterprise—
ASP.NET might be the right tool for the job.
