Fastest way to get up to speed on webapp development with ASP.NET?
- by leeand00
I'm trying to get better at C# ASP.NET 3.5 development (...no none of that MVC stuff :), and fast!
My boss gave me a book to read on it from Wrox, but the thing reads like a history novel, telling you how things worked as far back as ASP.NET 1.0; The web application we are developing is completely in ASP.NET 3.5 so I don't need to read through any of the history (maybe I'm wrong about that...but I don't really have the time to read about that...)
Do you have any suggestions for a faster (book, series of tutorials) to come up to speed on it?
I'd like to learn about UI components, database access, etc...
P.S. In a previous position I was an JSP/J2EE developer (and I used MVC all the time! :-D)
P.S.S. I did take a course on it in 2008 at some point, but it seemed all very pointy and clickly. I wanna learn the code stuff! The how it works, and where the events are!
