This tutorial teaches ASP.NET Core MVC and Entity Framework Core with controllers and views. Razor Pages is a new alternative in ASP.NET Core 2.0, a page-based programming model that makes building web UI easier and more productive. We recommend the Razor Pages tutorial over the MVC version. The Razor Pages tutorial:

• Is easier to follow.
• Provides more EF Core best practices.
• Uses more efficient queries.
• Is more current with the lastest API.
• Covers more features.
• Is the preferred approach for new application development.
