Developer Tools
You can create simple websites with text and images by using a text editor, such as Notepad. However,
most websites require complex actions to be performed on the server-side, such as database
operations, email delivery, complex calculations, or graphics rendering.
To create such complex, highly functional, and engaging websites quickly and easily, Microsoft provides
the following tools: o WebMatrix 2. You can use WebMatrix 2 to create static HTML pages and dynamic
pages with ASP.NET, PHP, and Node.js. WebMatrix 2 is a free development tool that you can install by
downloading and using the Microsoft Web Platform Installer (Web PI) from the Microsoft website.
WebMatrix 2 enables you to develop custom websites based on popular web applications such as
Orchard, Umbraco CMS, and WordPress. Using WebMatrix 2, you can create ASP.NET Web Pages
applications, but not ASP.NET Web Forms or MVC applications.
Microsoft Visual Studio 2012. You can use Visual Studio 2012, an Integrated Development Environment
(IDE), to create custom applications based on Microsoft technologies, regardless of whether these
applications run on the web, on desktops, on mobile devices, or by using Microsoft cloud services. Visual
Studio 2012 has rich facilities for designing, coding, and debugging any ASP.NET web application,
including MVC applications.
Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web. You can use Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web to create
Web Forms or MVC web applications. This is a free tool that does not include all the features of Visual
Studio 2012 editions. However, you can use it to create fully functional MVC websites.

Hosting Technologies
Regardless of the tool you use to build a web application, you must use a web server to host the web
application. When users visit your site, the host server responds by rendering HTML and returning it to
the users browser for display.
The host server may query a database before it builds the HTML, and the host server may perform other
actions such as sending emails or saving uploaded files. You need to test the functionality of such user
actions on a web server. When you build a web application by using Visual Studio 2012, you can use
Visual Studio Development Server, the built-in web server to run the application. However, Visual Studio
Development Server cannot host deployed web applications. Therefore, when you finish building the
web application and make it ready for users to access on an intranet or over the Internet, you must use
a fully functional web server such as: o Microsoft Internet Information Server 8.
IIS is an advanced website hosting technology. You can install IIS servers on your local network or
perimeter network, or employ IIS servers hosted by an Internet service provider (ISP). IIS can host any
ASP.NET, PHP, or Node.js websites.

You can scale up IIS to host large and busy websites by configuring server farms that contain multiple IIS
servers, all serving the same content.
Windows Azure. Windows Azure is a cloud platform that provides on-demand services to build, deploy,
host, and manage web applications through Microsoft-managed data centers. When you use Windows
Azure services, you need to pay only for the data that your website serves. Also, you need not worry
about building a scalable infrastructure because Windows Azure automatically adds resources as your
website grows.

The ASP.NET API

Whichever programming model you choose, you have access to classes from the ASP.NET API. These
classes are included in the .NET Framework in namespaces within the System.Web namespace and can
be used to rapidly implement common website functionalities such as:
Configuration. Using Web.config files, you can configure your web application, regardless of the
programming model. Web.config files are XML files with specific tags and attributes that the ASP.NET
4.5 runtime accepts. For example, you can configure database connections and custom error pages in
the Web.config file. In code, you can access the configuration through the System.Web.Configuration
namespace. o Authentication and Authorization.
Many websites require users to log on by entering a user name and password, or by providing extra
information. You can use ASP.NET membership providers to authenticate and authorize users, and
restrict access to content. You can also build pages that enable users to register a new account, reset a
password, recover a lost password, or perform other account management tasks. Membership providers
belong to the System.Web.Security namespace.
Caching. ASP.NET may take some time to render a complex webpage that may require multiple database
queries or calls to external web services. You can use caching to mitigate this delay. ASP.NET caches a
rendered page in memory, so that it can return the same page to subsequent user requests without
having to render it again from the start. In a similar manner, .NET Framework objects can also be
cached. You can access cached pages by using the System.Runtime.Caching namespace and configure
the caches in Web.config.

JavaScript
JavaScript is a simple scripting language that has syntax similar to C#, and it is supported by most web
browsers. A scripting language is not compiled. Instead, a script engine interprets the code at run time
so that the web browser can run the code.
Note: Besides JavaScript, Internet Explorer supports VBScript. There are other scripting languages also,
but JavaScript is supported by virtually every web browser. This is not true of any other scripting
language. Unless your target audience is very limited and you have control over the browser used by
your users, you should use JavaScript because of its almost universal support.

You can include JavaScript code in your ASP.NET pages, irrespective of the programming model you
choose. JavaScript is a powerful language, but can require many lines of code to achieve visual effects or
call external services. Script libraries contain pre-built JavaScript functions that help implement common
actions that you might want to perform on client-side code. You can use a script library, instead of
building all your own JavaScript code from the start; using a script library helps reduce development
time and effort. Different browsers interpret JavaScript differently. When you develop an Internet site,
you do not know what browsers site visitors use. Therefore, you must write JavaScript that works
around browser compatibility.
jQuery
is one of the most popular JavaScript libraries. It provides elegant functions for interacting with the
HTML elements on your page and with cascading style sheet (CSS) styles. For example, you can locate all
the <div> elements on a webpage and change their background color by using a single line of code. To
achieve the same result by using JavaScript only, you need to write several lines of code and a
programming loop. Furthermore, the code you write may be different for different browsers. Using
jQuery, it is easier to write code to respond to user actions and to create simple animations. jQuery also
handles browser differences. You can use jQuery to call web services on remote computers and update
the webpage with the results returned.
AJAX
AJAX is a technology that enables browsers to communicate with web servers asynchronously by using
the XmlHttpRequest object without completely refreshing the page. You can use AJAX in a page to
update a portion of the page with new data, without reloading the entire page. For example, you can
use AJAX to obtain the latest comments on a product, without refreshing the entire product page. AJAX
is an abbreviation of Asynchronous JavaScript and XML. AJAX is implemented entirely in JavaScript, and
ASP.NET 4.5, by default, relies on the jQuery library to manage AJAX requests and responses. The code is
run asynchronously, which means that the web browser does not freeze while it waits for an AJAX
response from the server. Initially, developers used XML to format the data returned from the server.
More recently, however, developers use JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) as an alternative format to
XML.
