ScottGu: Introducing “Razor” – a new view engine for ASP.NET(weblogs.asp.net)

submitted by JemmJemm(9604) 1 year, 10 months ago

"ASP.NET MVC has always supported the concept of “view engines” – which are the pluggable modules that implement different template syntax options.

The codename for this new view engine is “Razor”, and we’ll be shipping the first public beta of it shortly." read more...
