Web Project Management

In Microsoft® Visual InterDev™, you first create a Web project so that you can:

A Web project contains the files and information needed to create and publish a single Web application within Microsoft® Visual Studio™. The files within a Web application can consist of several different file formats that you modify during design time: HTML pages, Active Server Pages (ASP), image files, layouts, themes, and so on.

A Web project manages two copies of the Web application: local and master. All the master Web application files are stored on the master Web server. Before editing files, you retrieve files from the server so that working copies of the files are placed locally into your local Web application.

In a multiple-developer scenario, each member of the development team has his or her own project, which can refer to the same master Web application. For a walkthrough scenario, see Working with Multiple Developers. For more information about projects, servers, and Web applications, see Project Architecture.

Note   You can create two types of projects with Visual InterDev — Web projects and database projects. For information on database projects, see Managing Database Projects.
