## What it is
ASP.NET Core MVC is a model-view-controller framework for building dynamic web sites and HTTP services with clean separation of concerns, merging MVC, Web API, and Razor Web Pages. This repository is archived; development has moved to the aspnet/AspNetCore repo.

## Use cases
- build dynamic websites with mvc pattern in asp.net core
- create restful http apis with web api
- render razor views for server-side web pages
- self-host a web application in your own process
- build tdd-friendly web applications in c#

## When to choose
- you are building an ASP.NET Core web app or API today (via the AspNetCore repo)
- you want a patterns-based framework with Razor views and HTTP services in one framework

## When to avoid
- you want active development or new features - this repo is archived
- you are on classic ASP.NET MVC 5.x or Web API 2.x - use AspNetWebStack instead
