What is ASP.Net MVC?
ASP.Net MVC is a framework which follows Model View Controller (MVC) architecture.
MVC stands for Model View and Controller. Originally, it was Thing-Model-View-Editor and later known as Model View Controller.
MVC is an architectural pattern that isolates an application into three primary logical segments: the model, the view, and the controller. Every one of these parts are worked to deal with explicit improvement parts of an application. MVC is perhaps the most oftentimes utilized industry-standard web improvement structure to make adaptable and extensible software applications.
You may use the MVC pattern in Java, C++, C#, and other languages as well.

View is equivalent to ASPX or HTML page which is responsible for presenting UI section of the application. All form controls used in MVC based application are available in View components of MVC application.
Controller is like the code behind in traditional ASP.Net application. The very first request comes to the controller only. It acts like an interface between model and view components and processes the business logic and handle all incoming requests.
