September 23, 2013 No Comments

We came to this error when rendering one ASP.NET MVC page:

Only Content controls are allowed directly in a content page that contains Content controls.

Very strange formulation butit means that you have some error in your View (maybe missing </asp:Content> or without its opening tag)

Best new web technologies

Creating modern website od SaaS service requires you to be familiar with a lot of new technologies such as:

HTML 5
WebGL and 3D effects – look at these super nice examples
jQuery (best popular JS library for easy front-end programming)
CSS 3 (and it’s extensions: Sass or LESS)
Responsive design frameworks (“One site to rule them all”): Foundation, Gumby, Bootstrap, Unsemantic, Skeleton
Non-relation datastores or NoSQL such as MongoDB
AJAX
Delegated authentication & authorization, using OAuth, used by popular services such as Facebook, Twitter, Google & LinkedIn
REST-ful paradigms and APIs
