Welcome to the Web Development track. Here you will learn about creating dynamic web sites, also called web applications. Unlike Windows applications, which need to be installed and can only be used on your desktop, web applications can be used from anywhere on the Internet. The Web track covers everything you need to learn about how the Internet works and how to create great web applications using Visual Web Developer Express Edition along with Visual Basic or Visual C#. Learn best practices like splitting your code into distinct data, logic, and presentation layers, and how to work with ASP.NET, Web Forms, and AJAX, to bring your site to life. At the end, take your knowledge and create the next big web site. You’ll be ready!
