ASP.NET MVC Goes Beta

Yesterday Microsoft released a beta of ASP.NET MVC.  After 5 CTP preview releases this is a major step towards the first release of ASP.NET MVC.

Key new things about this beta that I like…

- Explicit Go live license!

- Starting to see new Visual Studio Automation – you can now click Add View  from within the controller – so now more having to File –New (you still can if you want)  - The new feature will follow naming conventions and create a view folder for the controller if it doesn’t exist  it will also allow you to set the typed view from the dialog.

-  JQuery is now in the script folder – if you missed it Microsoft announced support for JQuery here.  JQuery is worth paying attention to even from non MVC applications

- Silverlight Project integration – you can now link and host Silverlight from within a ASP.NET project using VS to do the link of the projects.

You can read the full details of changes in this beta here.
