What is a good MVC 3 tutorial for beginner/intermediate/Advanced?
Definitive and authoritative sources are preferred.
Either websites or books are fine.
ASP.NET MVC is no longer in active development. The last version update was in November 2018. Despite this, a lot of projects are using ASP.NET MVC for web solution development. As to JetBrains' research, 42% of software developers were using the framework in 2020.
As for me, it takes about 2-3 weeks to tack on another language, and about a month after that for me to feel fully competent in it; results will vary depending on your motivation and the language/framework itself (Python was really fast).
An action result is what a controller action returns in response to a browser request. The ASP.NET MVC framework supports several types of action results including: ViewResult - Represents HTML and markup. EmptyResult - Represents no result.
The best ASP.NET MVC tutorial I know is the NerdDinner application contained in "Professional ASP.NET MVC 3". It has been created by Scott Hanselman and is in production use online at http://www.NerdDinner.com.
[Update] An even better tutorial (and one that is more up-to-date) is the official ASP.NET MVC Music Store Step-by-Step Tutorial.
www.pluralsight.com has fantastic tutorial videos for many of microsoft's technologies.
the ASP.NET MVC site is a decent tutorial to get started with (MVC Music store) as it shows the basics but I can suggest the following books as well:
Professional ASP.NET MVC3
Pro ASP.NET Framework MVC3
I think it's important to point out here that the tutorials are a good starting point - they will not make you an expert. It will be through external reading and practice that MVC will feel "easy" to you. Remember though, there are other books, these are just 2 from the ones I know and have read
i found out the resources on asp.net mvc page very useful(the link is http://www.asp.net/mvc). there are also video tutorials on the home page which cover the basics of mvc.
