.net 3.7 v 6 Re: Areas

Question

In earlier versions of .net (e.g. 3.7) right-clicking on project folder in Solution Explorer would give you the option to add Area. Has that process been changed with newer iterations of .net (e.g. 6)?

Hi @Dean Everhart

Yes, the process has been changed.

In .Net 6. you have to create an "Areas" folder first, then right click the "Areas" folder and select the "Add" option, then you can find the "Area..". option.

you just add an Areas folder to the solution. then a folder for the area

Areas -> MyArea

then add a Pages folder for razor pages, Views & Controller folders for MV
