ASP.NET and Web Tools CadenceContinuous innovation: Release every ~6 months

No “upfront decision” on any ASP.NET technologyUnified dialog

One Project: Web Forms, MVC, Web API

Add any framework to any project

Scaffolding works across all frameworks

Configurable authentication

Bootstrap used for layout and stylingTemplates based on Bootstrap.js

Popular CSS layout framework

Many themes available

Completely new scaffolding system for One ASP.NETWeb application code generation based on your data model

Targets data-driven and CRUD boilerplate code

One ASP.NET

ASP.NET Identity (a.k.a. Membership)

Complete rewrite of the old Membership feature

Default authentication against different storage providers

Easier to customize

Can be used from different ASP.NET technologies

Integrated with external logons through providers

Active Directory, Windows Azure Active Directory,

Microsoft Account, Facebook, Twitter, and Google

New Membership system

One ASP.NET Identity system

Supports claims-based authentication

Integrated with external logons

One ASP.NETBrowser Link HighlightsIt improves the way you develop web apps; no need to start/stop. Just “refresh” and see how your app runs in browsers. Make changes in Visual Studio and force an update in connected browsers

A bi-directional channel

Built on open web standards

New HTML editor

AngularJS IntelliSense

Enable Edit and ContinueBy default for new web apps

Browser Link(“Artery”)

Demo

One ASP.NET

Available as stand-alone NuGet packages

Web API security (CORS, OAuth 2.0)

Attribute routing

OWIN integration

Web API OData

ASP.NET Web API 2

Cross-Origin Requests

Enable CORS in web APIPer action

Per controller

Globally

[EnableCors(origins: "http://www.example.com", headers: "*", methods: "*")]public class ItemsController : ApiController{ public HttpResponseMessage GetAll() { ... } public HttpResponseMessage GetItem(int id) { ... } public HttpResponseMessage Post() { ... }

[DisableCors] public HttpResponseMessage PutItem(int id) { ... }}

OWIN

OWIN = Open Web Interface for .NETCommon interface that decouples apps from servers

Standards for connecting servers to frameworksDeeply integrated with the ASP.NET pipeline

Run your web APIs on any OWIN-compliant host (your own process)

What is Katana?OWIN components that are built and released by Microsoft Infrastructure components, as hosts and servers Authentication components Bindings to frameworks such as SignalR and ASP.NET Web API

High-Level Goals of Katana

PortableEasily substituted for new components

Third-party frameworks can seamlessly run on Microsoft servers

Microsoft frameworks can potentially run on third-party servers and hosts

Modular/flexibleSmall and focused components

Lightweight

Lightweight/performance/scalableConsume fewer computing resources

Handle more load

Attribute RoutingBring your routes closer to your resources

config.Routes.MapHttpRoute( name: “TodosForTodoList", routeTemplate: "api/todolists/{id}/todos", defaults: new { controller = “todolists”, action = “GetTodos” });

Controller Selector

Action Selector

public IEnumerable<TodoItem> GetTodos() { … }

Bring your routes closer to your resources

config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();

[HttpGet("api/todolists/{id}/todos")]public IEnumerable<TodoItem> GetTodos(int id) { … }

Attribute Routing

Attribute Routing

Optional values Default values[HttpGet(“Demographics/{zipcode?}")]public Demographics Get(int? zipcode) { … }

[HttpGet("Demographics/{zipcode=98052}")]public Demographics Get(int zipcode) { … }[HttpGet("people/{id:int}")]public Person Get(int id) { … }

[HttpGet("people/{name:alpha}")]public Person Get(string name) { … }

Taking Web APIs to the Next LevelHow to add support for:Relationships?Query?Paging?Action?Batching?Clients?

OData provides a standard solution for common Web API patterns

ASP.NET Web API ODataComponents for implementing OData servicesModel builders, formatters (Atom/JSON/XML), path and query parsers, LINQ expression generator, etc.

Built on ODataLibSame underpinnings as WCF Data Services

Open SourceAccepting contributions

Now supports $select, $expand, and $batch

What is ASP.NET SignalR?

Incredibly simple real-time web for .NETSimplicity

Reach

Performance

How can I use real-time functionality in my app?Anytime a user refreshes the page or you use pollingDashboards and monitoringCollaborative anythingGamingReal-time forms and concurrency management

ASP.NET SignalR 2.0OWINSimplified dependency graph

Unified startup configuration story

Highly portable between IIS and self-host

Portable Class LibraryClient libs for WinRT, WPF, WP8 and SL5

OWIN integration

Portable Class Library client

Xamarin client (iOS, Android, and Mac)

C++ client for Windows
