When using Microsoft Visual Studio .NET, you are creating a Web
application instead of a Web site. Web Applications typically
involve more programming code and can include Web services.
Fundamentally Web applications and Web sites can be the same
thing. Microsoft’s view is Visual Studio .NET is for building
applications, Web or otherwise. If you are building a simple web
site, their recommendation is to use Microsoft FrontPage.
Ektron recommends using Microsoft Visual Studio .NET or Macromedia
Dreamweaver MX 2004. Ektron has added extended functionality for both
products in Ektron CMS400.NET.
Most Web applications include the following:
• a Web project
• references
• assembly information
• a Global.asax file
• a style sheet
• a web.config file
• one or more Web Forms
