Can I create a view in MVC4 (Razor) without having model/ controller like in ASP.NET

I have done a few examples in MVC wherein I was declaring my DB in models, then I create my controller and then link a view to each of the methods in Controller.

I have been reading all the net that MVC is loosely coupled. Can you please give me solution on how to generate a View alone for a project without having any models declared.

Solution

  • Just don't use a model in your view:

    Controller

    public ActionResult Index()
{
    return View();
}

    View (Index.cshtml)

    @{
    ViewBag.Title = "Home Page";
}

<h1>Hello World!</h1>
