ASP.Net MVC 3 Project Setup (with Glimpse, ELMAH & MiniProfiler)
Simple notes to can come back to later, documenting the setup steps to follow to create a basic ASP.Net MVC 3 project in Visual Studio 2010. The goal is to end up with an MVC 3 project that uses Glimpse, ELMAH and MiniProfiler for debugging. I also want to have all the database scripts created and ready to run against my remote databases (e.g. – for ASP.Net Membership).
