Session 5- Front Controller

In this session we have covered topics related to front controller and how does it relate to the upcoming ASP.net MVC framework.
The ASP।net framework uses the page controller pattern। Every request is mapped to a page, which interacts with the model and the database.
The Front Controller on the other hands takes all request and dispatches it to appropriate views.

An Idea

Every thing begins with an idea. We all have a desire to learn and be informed. And we all have some common problems like lack of time, proper guidance, lack of information which keeps us from pursuing our desire.

The "30 Minutes to Tech Nirvana" was born out of the same desire. This concept is started with the help of my collegues to satisy the above desire. We spend 30 minutes a day to share our knowledge and experience with the team members. This helps us to understand certain things which we generally take for granted.

What follows rest is the summary of these sessions. This will serve as a single point of reference.

Our high lever agenda is to master these technologies
The following is the high level finalized agends [I finalized it :)]

Let's see, where this exercise leads to. May be we all may learn a lesson or two out of this little experimentation..
