Background: I am learning ASP.NET MVC, I am a decent HTML/CSS writer with some JS but I know c# and I am looking for something more in web development.
Question: I am about to create a basic "brochure" (static) webpage, no database needed, for a friend. A contact form will be used along with some pretty JS. Is it overkill to create a new MVC project in VS and build their site using this technology (disregarding the small price increase in hosting)? I really want to begin playing with ASP and I wonder if this is a perfect starting point.
Thank you.
By "brochure" I'm assuming that all the content will be static? If so, yes it's overkill. You aren't going to get to use many of the MVC features.
If you want to play with ASP.NET MVC, just do it. I'd recommend maybe some Pluralsight videos, or a book like ASP.NET MVC in Action (Manning) series or Professional ASP.NET MVC (Wrox) series.

I am looking to learn ASP.NET but the information I have found about this subject get me a little confused. I thought ASP.NET was a language that you learned and then you program in it like is PHP, but what I have found is that you have to use VB or C#, Angular JS, and some other things to make something in ASP.NET.
So is ASP.NET a language or not? What is it exactly? Do I have to learn more than one language to do something in ASP.NET? which is the fastest way to start doing things in ASP.NET?
From Microsoft docs:
ASP.NET is a free web framework for building great Web sites and Web
applications using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. You can also create Web
APIs, mobile sites, use real-time technologies like Web Sockets and
more!
You need to know C#, HTML, Javascript to get started with

I'm a fellow winform/wpf dev. Everything seems to move into the web atm.
Well I've got php and html5/css3 experience, but asp.net seems not that straight forward.
With the upcoming asp.net vNext I'm confused which technology to choose. To get into it,
I've decided to do a simple ass-hat youtube online converter.
On the one side people claim to choose always the best and latest ones, but on the other side
they are not.
Does it even matter? Is vNext that different from what we got today?
I'm sorry to ask such a "simple" question, but in the past no one told me to choose wpf.. you can imagine what happened :)
I'm a huge fan of telerik. Is telerik the to go suite for asp.net?
ASP.NET vNext is still in preview. For someone new to ASP.NET I would recommend looking at Get Started with ASP.NET. For a "standard" website I would recommend ASP.NET MVC, and for a SPA-like application using e.g. AngularJS I would recommend ASP.NET Web API.
I would recommend going with a stable version choose the latest ASP.NET MVC 5 , you can always find simple and informative tutorials on ASP.NET MVC, and yes , telerik is one among the best 3rd part controls, which you can easily integrate with asp.net mvc.
If you are going for more pure web development, you can choose asp.net web api to host service as http and consume them using jquery ajax and several other clients

I have an application which is built in windows form C# where I have a View, a Model and s ManagerHelper folder with classes in it. I wanted to convert this application into MVC application.
I know it's not convertable and needs to be implemented from scratch. The reason I wish to create to an MVC project is because I'm new to MVC and wish to learn it.
I'm familiar with HTML syntax however this seems to be really hard to get a grip of.
So my question is: What would a good approach if I which to change my windows form application into an MVC application.
Any link to articles or any books recommendation for Learning MVC would be helpful as well.
There was an article about this in MSDN magazine last year. It should help guide you. You can read it HERE

I'd like to start working on a web-based ASP.net application to assist me with some DBA-type tasks.
I am looking for resources, books, tutorials that might show me how to get started in writing a GUI front end for a web-based application using ASP.Net and C#?
I'll need to use whichever option (MVC or Web Forms) that supports:
dynamic charts, graphs, dash boards and metrics to present data graphically
dynamic menus and options driven by database to prevent rebuilding every time a new option is added
What are ASP.NET & C# best practices for web-based application?
I think the best place to start is the ASP.NET website.
I found the NerdDinner tutorial pretty helpful to learn ASP.NET MVC, if you're looking for a walkthrough.

Plural Sight has been an excellent resource for me.

Is it possible to have a dynamic website built using HTML5, CSS, JS and have it link to a backend using c#?
Am new to the whole microsoft side of development (coming from a php background) and haven't a clue.
thinking in terms of medium to enterprise applications.
thanks
Yes, use asp.net mvc...This is what you want: http://www.asp.net/mvc/mvc4
Here is a bunch of good video tutorials: http://www.asp.net/mvc/videos/pluralsight-building-applications-with-aspnet-mvc-4
Yes. Although I'd recommend looking at things like Angular.js (its what Gmail uses) to provide the best experience on the front-end. The backend can still be C# either ASP.NET[MVC] or WebAPI.
