Learn ASP.NET 5, MVC 6, Web API and SharePoint

ASP.NET is a free web framework for building Web sites using Open source technologies like HTML and JavaScript. ASP.NET Web API is a framework for building web APIs on top of the .NET Framework. ASP.NET MVC allows you to build dynamic websites that enables a clean separation of concerns and utilizes patterns and practices. SharePoint and SharePoint Online (cloud based) is an enterprise and web application collaboration platform that allows businesses and individuals to create portals, public websites, connect via social networks, collaborate, manage content, create BI dashboards and apps and much more.

ASP.NET 5 is a new framework from Microsoft and is a significant redesign of ASP.NET. ASP.NET 5 (currently in RC) is open source and cross-platform and allows you to build apps that run on Windows, Mac and Linux.  In earlier versions of ASP.NET, Web API was provided as a separate Web API framework, but going forward in the ASP.NET 5 release, Web API is merged with MVC, termed as MVC 6. This provides an advantage of creating Web UI using HTML and API services using a single framework.

These articles will help you get up and running with creating applications with both the older version of ASP.NET as well as with ASP.NET 5. For those absolutely new to ASP.NET MVC and Web API, please read The MVC Pattern and ASP.NET MVC - Back to Basics and Lifecycle of an ASP.NET Web API Message before you explore the tutorials given below.
