Application overview
Taking a real-life example is the best approach to explore and understand the concepts of a given framework context. The idea is not to show how to build the web application; instead, we will show the important components which are part of the application so that anyone can just pick one component and use it in another application. You can always find the complete working solution in the code downloaded for the book.
Let's jump into action. First, we will go through the brief about our application—blog. We will call it Blogpress. Please note that it will not be a full-fledged blogging application; instead, we will develop it with the following functionalities:
- Landing page—shows a list of blogs with the links to each blog.
