ConsoleMVC.Template 1.1.0

ConsoleMVC Application Template

A dotnet new project template for ConsoleMVC — an MVC framework for console applications inspired by ASP.NET Core MVC.

Installation

dotnet new install ConsoleMVC.Template

Usage

# Create a new ConsoleMVC project
dotnet new consolemvc -n MyApp

# Run it
cd MyApp
dotnet run

What You Get

A ready-to-run console application structured with the MVC pattern:

• Program.cs — entry point using the familiar CreateBuilder().Build().Run() pattern
• Controllers/ — controller classes that handle actions and return results
• Views/ — .cvw view templates with @model directive (compiled at build time)
• Models/ — ViewModel DTOs passed from controllers to views

The template includes working examples of:

• Navigation — moving between controllers and actions (Home, About)
• Form data posting with model binding — a greeting form that collects input and posts it to a controller as a GreetFormModel class
• Form data posting with simple parameters — a calculator that posts individual values (int a, int b, string op) directly to action method parameters

IDE Support
