What Is MVC? Simple Explanation

[@grantwilliams9838]

Probably the best explanation I've seen yet regarding mvc. The diagram was excellent, the pseudo choose just topped it off. Well done again Brad.

[@robot297]

The pseudo code was the cherry on top in my opinion! Thanks for the tutorial!

[@12819421]

Precise, simple and gives the clear picture. Exactly what one want to know about MVC framework as a beginner, excellent job Brad, we owe you! Model - Organized data View - Interactive UI Control - Scalable processing logic connecting model and View

[@SebLeCaribou]

After five other videos, a read through the entire wikipedia page, and two other websites, you finally made me understand the concept. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

we were waiting , every day I watch your channel so thanks for sharing knowledge

Geez no pressure there...just kidding. Thanks for watching

was the example based on php~laravel :D ?

You're goddamn right! The 3 min "pseudocode" example he put was more clear than what other guys try to say in hours in other tutorials

[@denniskean183]

The Best explanation so far without getting lost in a deep ocean. I recently purchased a few courses from Traversy Media and you are a master at clarity and staying simple. Many thanks for that. The question, "What is MVC?", popped in an interview spells doom for many. I always explained it in line with what you teach here, but interviewers have their own ideas of what it means and most of the time it is just their private beliefs. I dread that question. But I think I will refer them to this video and be done with it, next time. You are a hero, my friend!

[@seanm9306]

All the clarifications of what aspects vary depending on the framework really cleared things up for me. So many tutorials specify that certain aspects will or won't interact with one another in certain ways, but those differ from tutorial to tutorial. This really cleared that up.

[@tobyn123]

I just keep finding video after video after video of all the info I want, by you! Your channel is probably one of the best sources of information on the whole internet for anybody looking to get into development...

[@romanticscents]

thank you for sharing. i had a job interview once and he asked me was i familiar with the term mvc. i wasn't sure because mvc bAck in the day for me stood for Microsoft visual composer when i learned visual basic studio. now i understand your example. thank

[@coobybooby933]

You are very talented at this, no wonder people are stealing your videos. Thank you.

[@ankitaaarya]

*Clicked on thumbnail, paused the video, now commenting : thank you so f-ing much!!! i was searching MVC all over the internet, thanks to you man, & god is listening to me.*

[@Fawaz-vn5eg]

Much awaited video. Thanks for sharing. The concept of MVC feels little bit confusing while i'am reading online articles, now i got it solved by this. Loving your style of teaching. Greetings from India😍✌

This was awesome, I have never seen state management explained so nicely! I really liked the "languageless" code you had as an example towards the end. Excellent job!

[@kwalombo_ta]

Ridiculously easy to understand. give this man some gold

[@rwingender]

You are awesome! I've viewed a few similar videos on MVC, but yours is the best by far. It's not just the content that makes it the best; it's also just the tone of voice, the pacing, how you use the visuals and make it easy to follow where you are/what you're talking about visually. Really fantastic work!!

[@vamshikrishna-pt6qx]

This is the best MVC tutorial so far i have seen. Thanks for that. It would be good if you explain some important concepts like SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), cross-site request forgery (CSRF) and cookie tampering implementation by considering some MVC framework.

[@computeprashant]

The last part of explaination is something you can't get everywhere..Thank you for wonderful tutorial!!!

[@FloridaGulfCoastLife]

Thank you for the explanation. That pseudo code really made it easier.

I normally won't comment in most tech videos that I watch but I really liked the way u illustrate the code in one page which makes people to really understand the flow of the code for those who wants to see the clear picture of the dynamic flow in the codes.

Model - Interaction with database (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) View - Usually consist of HTML/CSS Controller - Processes requests (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE)

[@gamesrullzro8356]

Model -> Database View -> Front-end Controller -> Server

[@celesterobinson6884]

Wait this is misleading. Based on this video, the Model is NOT the Database. It communicates with the database. 2:43

[@gandhikaran24]

Model is the query language that handles and manages data and not the database itself.

[@miggu]

concise, useful and not overcomplicated : excellent explanation. thank you

[@yamogebrewold8620]

This was helpful. I recently learnt in a lecture about MVC that in true MVC, the Controller doesn't actually interact with the View, it only interacts with the Model, and that many MVC frameworks don't follow the "true MVC way". Is that something worth considering? I guess that as long as this way is what we find in popular frameworks, let's just stick to that. This makes much more sense to me personally.

[@saimhassan]

so MVC is basically a technique to organize data, functionality and GUI comps and keeping them away from each other yet in communication? if i'm not drunk?

[@istandaloneroronoazoro5188]

I wish there were a simpler explanation for it. Because all those technical terms throw me off guard. Just so that I see my logic: "MVC is a pattern used in web or software development for organising the code content based on its purpose? For example, Model takes responsibility for all database related things; View is the Preview state for the user to see the final result on the browser; and Controller is what???" This is my current understanding of it :(

[@saimhassan]

@@istandaloneroronoazoro5188 no problem, controller is just a Class that holds the methods which we write to fetch data from db and redirect users to appropriate view (gui)
