I’ve been digging into ASP.NET MVC more and more and the more I use it the more I love it. Never thought I’d say that. At first glance I didn’t like the idea of MVC because it looks like ASP Classic when you first look at it. Server side code nuggets <% Inside the Html %> like asp classic. Though I was hesitant giving up classic when .net came out.
MVC I realize after using it, is much more powerful. You’re not really doing server side code on the client, it’s an html template, you only do logic that relates to the UI. Real code and business logic is for the controllers and classes. There’s no code-behind anymore, no viewstate, no more .net controls with ID and runat server tags. It’s so light weight, I’m baffled.
Good Starting Tutorials.

Once you complete that.. move on to the next one which is a more realistic world app.

After that you’ll understand it very well and have a good grasp.
