I’m officially starting a project to write software for hosting webcomics using Microsoft’s MVC (Model View Controller) framework for Asp.Net.
Of course there are two main reasons for doing this:
- Learn MVC and use it on a real project
- Profit (well, hopefully generate revenue by hosting other people’s webcomics)
Don’t know if numero dos up there will ever pan out, but I can’t go wrong with number one unless I actually knock something else out of my head by learning MVC.
I’m only just starting to dig in to MVC but so far I like it. It is Microsoft’s answer to things like Ruby On Rails.
Kind of begs the question why I don’t just use Ruby On Rails, doesn’t it? Well my reasoning is that I can use C# and .Net for MVC (or Web Forms) and also use it for Silverlight (I want to make casual games too…). I also plan to dig-in to XNA for XBox 360 and Windows games as well. Hmm. Guess I’d better work on the time dilation device first…
