What is ASP.NET?

ASP.NET is a powerful programming platform for developing web-based applications and services. It comes with rich set of web controls to create dynamic, fast and interactive web pages. Web pages built using ASP.NET are called ASP.NET web pages or web forms. ASP.NET simplifies web development by using WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editors. ASP.NET helps to build complex web applications with the use of drag and drop control support. Visual Studion.NET helps us to build web applications (ASP.NET) using either the C# or VB programming language. The following features are making developers choose ASP.NET over other technologies:

• ASP.NET applications can be designed and developed using RAD (Rapid Application Development) tools.
• ASP.NET web forms support a variety of controls and also support user created and third party controls.
• Any .NET FrameWork language can be used to develop ASP.NET applications.
• ASP.NET uses the Common Language Runtime (CLR) resource and benefits from it's features.
