MVC on the roadmap?
MVC on the roadmap?
Just curious if MVC is somewhere on the roadmap? It looks like a ton of work was put into the CommerceBuilder source (using interfaces, inheritance, etc) and I noticed that WebAPI is used in a few places. Would be great to gain more control over the HTML (ditch viewstate and WebResource/ScriptResource, move all JavaScript to bottom, etc) and have better separation between the presentation and data layers (all required data populated in view model so you aren't calling tons of helper functions from .Net controls).

Re: MVC on the roadmap?
We just removed MVC from voting in the feature request system (uservoice), it's not received a vote in over a year.
It would be a rewrite of the entire front facing store pages, so it's more likely to happen during a major release if we ever get enough community support. I guess not everyone wants to learn something new every day.

I wasn't aware it was up for a vote. It's a tough call because migrating an existing webforms store I'm sure would entail some work. I'd agree in the long run it's a good move but it's tough when you have an installed user base and I'm sure webforms will be here for years to come. Having said that, I'd still like to see this go that direction - eventually.

I remember I had asked a couple of years ago, but I think that at this point in time, I would rather see html 5 implemented. From what I have read (and partly remember!) it is good for multiple devices.

Judy, MVC would give developers full control over the HTML code. Everything I do in MVC is HTML5.
Re: MVC on the roadmap?
I +1 the eventual migration to MVC. I love the MVC approach in php and it looks like it is just as good in asp.net based off this overview article http://www.asp.net/mvc/tutorials/older- ... c-overview
It also looks like the process can be done over a period of several versions as it looks like the web forms and mvc can coexist in the application?
