# Getting started with ASP.NET Core MVC and Visual Studio for Mac

This tutorial teaches you the basics of building an ASP.NET Core MVC web app using [Visual Studio for Mac](https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/visual-studio-mac/).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are 3 versions of this tutorial:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* macOS: [Build an ASP.NET Core MVC app with Visual Studio for Mac](xref:tutorials/first-mvc-app-mac/start-mvc)
|
||
|
|
* Windows: [Build an ASP.NET Core MVC app with Visual Studio](xref:tutorials/first-mvc-app/start-mvc)
|
||
|
|
* Linux, macOS, and Windows: [Build an ASP.NET Core MVC app with Visual Studio Code](xref:tutorials/first-mvc-app-xplat/start-mvc)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Install the following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [.NET Core SDK](https://www.microsoft.com/net/core#macos)
|
||
|
|
- [Visual Studio for Mac](https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/visual-studio-mac/)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Create a web app
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
From Visual Studio, select **File > New Solution**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Select **.NET Core App > ASP.NET Core > Web App > Next**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Name the project **MvcMovie**, and then select **Create**.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Launch the app
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In Visual Studio, select **Run > Start Without Debugging** to launch the app. Visual Studio starts [IIS Express](http://www.iis.net/learn/extensions/introduction-to-iis-express/iis-express-overview), launches a browser, and navigates to `http://localhost:port`, where *port* is a randomly chosen port number.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The address bar shows `localhost:port#` and not something like `example.com`. That's because `localhost` is the standard hostname for your local computer. When Visual Studio creates a web project, a random port is used for the web server. When you run the app, you'll see a different port number.
|
||
|
|
* You can launch the app in debug or non-debug mode from the **Run** menu.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The default template gives you **Home, About** and **Contact** links. The browser image above doesn't show these links. Depending on the size of your browser, you might need to click the navigation icon to show them.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the next part of this tutorial, you learn about MVC and start writing some code.
