What is the best API to build a rest service: WCF and ASP MVC. What are the pros and cons of each approach?
At the moment WCF is relatively painful to build pure REST/HATEOAS api. Especially if you want to have unit tests. ASP MVC is targeted at more UI oriented projects. You may want to wait until Microsoft releases WCF Web API or use OpenRasta.
