A comment on Stefan Rusek: Ready to quit ASP.Net.

I've been developing Asp.net apps for years. It pays the bills. While I agree there are many issues with how things work, that doesnt mean it isn't the right tool or framework for many types of applications.

Unfortunately the writer makes it seem like all Asp.net developers use just the visual designer and the pre-made tools. At my job we have a whole library of in-house custom controls. Not so that the developers don't have to learn html, but for consistency and speed. I can't really remember when the last time was that I used the visual designer...

I must say though, I have been using Asp.net MVC for some personal projects and I absolutely love it!

How did you reach this conclusion? I don't see any mention of the visual designer or pre-made tools in this article.

I agree with this article; the abstraction sucks and the framework gets in your way more than it should.

The writer talked a lot about drag and drop.
