The Content of a Newly Created Web Site

The Content of a Newly Created Web Site:


• App_Browsers: Contains browser definition files (.browser) that ASP.NET uses to identify browsers and determine their capabilities. These files are often used to help support mobile applications

• App_Code Contains source code for classes and business objects (.cs, .vb, and .jsl files) that you want to compile as part of your application

• App_Data Contains application data files (.mdf and .xml files).

• App_GlobalResources Contains resources (.resx and .resources files) that are compiled into assemblies and have a global scope. Resource files are used to externalize text and images from your application code. This helps you support multiple languages and design-time changes without recompilation of source code

• App_LocalResources Contains resources (.resx and .resources files) that are scoped to a specific page, user control, or master page in an application.

• App_Themes Contains subfolders that each define a specific theme (or look) for your site. A theme consists of files (such as .skin, .css, and image files) that define the appearance of Web pages and controls.

• App_WebReferences Contains Web reference files (.wsdl, .xsd, .disco, and .discomap files) that define references to Web services.

• Bin Contains compiled assemblies (.dll files) for code that you want to reference in your application. Assemblies in the Bin folder are automatically referenced in your application.
