This sounds really stupid, but I was told that you could drag-and-drop visual components (including JavaScript or AJAX components?) onto a web page view in ASP.NET MVC and then ‘customize’ the components by editing code behind them once they were in place. Either I misunderstood what I was told or I’m blind and don’t see how to do this, but the ability to do this would help a lot, especially since I can’t really design things to save my life.

EDIT 1: For clarification: The way I was told, it made it seem like you could go to a panel, drag a button over to a view area, and then the HTML/CSS to put the button there would be stubbed out. Then, you could open a code editor and tweak everything exactly how you want it to be.

  1. Drag and drop is more suited to standard ASP.NET webforms, not MVC. I think you can still do it in MVC, but only if the controls do not rely on viewstate (which MVC does not support).
