ASP.NET WebForms versus ASP.NET MVCThis is not so much a critique on a project but more of a reflection on the ongoing discussions between the above-mentioned ASP.NET platforms.
After reading Scott Gu's blog on Technical Debates I have to think that Microsoft may have opened yet another Pandora's box with MVC. We have seen this before:
Perhaps all this is just healthy competition? In fact, it is somewhat by design; Microsoft's product teams are fairly independent and essentially compete with one another. It's survival of the fittest and sofar MVC appears 'more fit' than WebForms. Thoughts? Hans Overkamp, Feb 11, 2010

Reply 1I would say both are equally good but catering to two different development models. As you know, ASP.NET MVC was designed to support design-driven, test-driven, contract-first scenarios and it enforces pattern implementation. This might attract non-ASP.NET web developers too towards ASP.NET while making WebForms fans happy. Compared to WebForms, MVC does not enjoy extensive tooling support.
