phase 06 — views and razor

prerequisite

phase 05.

goal

a .cshtml page shows data from the controller model.

steps you do

1. at top of view: @model YourNamespace.SomeType
2. use @Model.Property (capital M on model object) per razor rules.
3. loop: @foreach (var x in Model.Lines) { ... }

sanity check

page renders without runtime error when model non-null.

common mistakes

• null model — add if (Model == null) or ensure controller always passes model
• confusing ViewBag vs strongly typed Model — pick one style per page

reflection

when readme says ViewBag.OrderId, where is it set?
