Naming for the "Razor Pages" feature #5208

Does it have to be under MVC? Could it be "ASP.NET Core Pages"? Since it's not technically MVC it may be confusing to put it under MVC (I understand that MVC is a product name, but for people new to ASP.NET, MVC is an architectural pattern). |
@pebezo the current preference is for it to be a sub-feature of MVC, but I certainly appreciate your point. Unfortunately, MVC is the product name for better or worse and that's not going to change. |
@ThoughtHaven pls make your suggestions in the full format outlined above. |
Why does microsoft suck so bad at marketing. Rails, Flask, Django, Node, cake php, Mountain Lion... See the pattern here? Instead of naming things after what they are (mvc), its better to name them something unique, searchable, and brandable. Asp.net core naming was a step in the right direction. cleared up the confusion with the MVC 6 nonsense. Now please do the same for Razor View Pages without the words: Razor, View or Pages. Some suggestions: I am sure the marketing team has a dictionary. Tell them to choose a name that is easy to brand, easy to search on Google, stack overflow, amazon and makes it crystal clear. If you can drop the MVC part, that would be a Huge plus. |
Naming is hard 😄 , IMHO "Razor Pages" is a cool product name, especially if we isolate Razor from MVC, so Razor will no longer tightly coupled MVC. Hope the dream comes true
|
@hismacho I like it but how will this be google friendly? I really wish msft would replace the words Web / Pages with something so unique it can easily be googled. The more brandable the better. |
Closing because the name has been established as Razor Pages. |
This issue covers what names we're going to use for the feature described in #494.
