MVC4 Internet Application template bundle enabled by default?


I am using Mvc 4 project from Internet Application template. Why bundle feature does not enabled by default or am I missing something?

There is no such methods like this in Mvc4 as mentioned by other post:

BundleTable.Bundles.RegisterTemplateBundles();
BundleTable.Bundles.EnableDefaultBundles();

Update: This how to enable bundle in debug mode

BundleTable.EnableOptimizations = true;

after registering bundles.


Solution

  • Bundles are registered and enabled by default. When you run in Release mode (debug="false") in your web.config the @Script.Render helper will concatenate and minify the resources into a single file. If you run in Debug mode then each script will be rendered separately.
