I am starting a group uni project and we are using ASP MVC 3. We are going to have a mobile (web) component as well as a “traditional” web app. Some of the views will overlap (as in Incidents mobile view and Incidents ordinary view). ASP MVC 4 has the mobile features that we want, but we don’t want to take chances with a Beta version.

What we were thinking of doing was having two MVC 3 projects in our solution, one for the mobile and one for the web app. Alternatively, we were thinking of having some mobile only controllers and having everything in one MVC project. For example (/AccountMobileController/Signup and /AccountController/Signup)?

What do you guys recommend? Is it silly to use ASP MVC 4 Beta?

    You can get mobile view support fairly easily in MVC 3. Take a look at how they approached this on Stackoverflow.

    For the most part, your controllers should be the same for mobile and full site, but the views will be different.
