MVC (Model-View-Controller) is a software architectural pattern used to separate an application into three main components: Model, View, and Controller. It helps organize code, improve scalability, and make applications easier to maintain and test.
In web and software development, MVC divides responsibilities so that data handling, user interface, and application logic are kept independent. This separation allows developers to work on different parts of an application without affecting others.
For example:
- In a blog application, the model manages posts, the view displays them, and the controller handles user actions like creating or editing posts.
- In an e-commerce site, the model manages product data, the view shows product pages, and the controller processes user requests like adding items to cart.
- In a login system, the model stores user data, the view shows the login form, and the controller validates credentials.
Common technologies and concepts related to MVC include:
- Model (Data Layer)
- View (UI Layer)
- Controller (Logic Layer)
- Frameworks (Laravel, Spring, Django)
- Routing
- Separation of Concerns
- Design Patterns
- Backend Architecture
