.cshtml and .aspx file in ASP.NET MVC

When developing the ASP.NET MVC Web Application , you would have observed that there are 2 different View Engines that are available by default .

These are called

  • Aspx View Engine
  • Razor View Engine

When the view is created with the Razor View Engine , the file will have the extension .cshtml whereas the View created with the ASPX View Engine will have the .aspx file extension.
