ASP.NET MVC Framework

MVC is a framework methodology that divides an application's implementation into three component roles: models, views, and controllers
  1. Models in a MVC based application are the components of the application that are responsible for maintaining state.
  2. Views in a MVC based application are the components responsible for displaying the application's user interface. Typically this UI is created off of the model data
  3. Controllers in a MVC based application are the components responsible for handling end user interaction, manipulating the model, and ultimately choosing a view to render to display UI. In a MVC application the view is only about displaying information - it is the controller that handles and responds to user input and interaction
MVC view engine: MVC having 8 alternate view engines,Brail, NDjango, NHaml, NVelocity, SharpTiles, Spark, StringTemplate and XSLT.

Razor is a view-engine developed by Microsoft and released with MVC 3 that is optimized around HTML generation using a code-focused templating approach.
