Hi,

I have a web-api mvc app that can get and post. I have a localDB and entity model created. I want to create a view or page that shows a table in my database. I'm not sure though how I can do that with just Razor code or if there is a standard procedure I need to do in web api mvc. Or if I can use LINQ. I tried to search for a way to do it but it can't seem to find what I'm looking for. So I turn to you beautiful people of Code Project.

There is a tutorial that does exactly what you describe[^]

It was a first link on google for "show datatable data in mvc".

Thank you. I was not able to see that while Googling though.
