While ASP.NET Web Forms is not part of the vNext initiative, it has not been ignored. As part of Visual Studio 2013 Update 2, it resumes support for new tools, EF integration, and Roslyn.
Why Web Forms is not part of ASP.NET vNext
To start, let’s explain the bad news. To improve performance and cross-platform portability, ASP.NET vNext is removing its dependency on System.Web. Compared to OWIN, it's slow and bulky, making testing more cumbersome than necessary.
Although they have tried many times to separate it, Web Forms is too closely connected to the rest of System.Web. That's just the beginning of the problem. System.Web and System.Design have circular dependencies. This situation should not even occur. To make things more complicated, System.Design also involves System.Windows.Forms.
All in all, Web Forms code is like a mess of spaghetti. But it will continue to be used, so Microsoft will still support it for now.
Support for Roslyn
Web Forms has always included runtime compilation as part of its deployment strategy. This has not changed, but as an alternative implementation, developers can switch to the Roslyn-based CodeDOM provider. (CodeDOM is the compiler framework currently used by Web Forms) Pranav Rastogi wrote:
We tested an application of moderate size and complexity (600+ assemblies in bin directory, 500+ user controls & pages ), after enabling the new CodeDOM provider, which will be detailed below, the runtime compilation cost of the startup/precompilation phase dropped from about 15 minutes to about 70 seconds.
Support ASP.NET Identity 2.0
ASP.NET Identity is a modern new membership management system for building ASP.NET applications. Identity makes it easier to add user profiles, social logins such as Facebook, Twitter, Microsoft accounts, Google, etc., and switch the persistence layer from SqlServer to Azure Table Storage. It also adds features like account confirmation, two-factor authentication, account lockout, single sign-on from any location, password reset and many other security-related features.
In this update, the Web Forms template has been modified to include features from ASP.NET Identity 2.0.
Support for Entity Framework 6
To support EF6, the following components have been updated:
EntityDataSource control
DynamicData provider
Universal provider
Web Forms scaffolding
Scaffolding is used in the ASP.NET MVC model Code generator for basic CRUD operations, rewritten in Visual Studio 2013. As a result of the rewrite, Microsoft can now provide scaffolding support for Web Forms. In particular, developers can create, replace, update, and delete views generated from a model object.

The role of IDisposable and using in C# is to efficiently and deterministically manage unmanaged resources. 1. IDisposable provides Dispose() method, so that the class can clearly define how to release unmanaged resources; 2. The using statement ensures that Dispose() is automatically called when the object is out of scope, simplifying resource management and avoiding leakage; 3. When using it, please note that the object must implement IDisposable, can declare multiple objects, and should always use using for types such as StreamReader; 4. Common best practices include not relying on destructors to clean up, correctly handling nested objects, and implementing the Dispose(bool) pattern.

Four common "anti-pattern" problems in C# development need to be avoided. First, the unreasonable use of async/await leads to deadlocks or performance degradation. We should adhere to the principle of full asynchronousness, configure ConfigureAwait(false) and standardize naming; second, excessive dependence on var affects readability, and explicitly declare and unify team specifications when the type is unclear; third, the incorrect use of Dispose and resource management causes leakage, and the use statement should be used correctly and the IDisposable standard mode should be implemented; fourth, the abuse of static classes or singletons causes testing difficulties, and priority should be given to dependency injection, statelessness, or the life cycle managed by containers. Avoiding these misunderstandings can significantly improve code quality and maintenance.

Span and Memory improve C# performance by reducing memory allocation. 1. Span avoids array copying and provides light references to existing memory, which is suitable for parsing binary protocols, string operations and high-performance buffer management; 2. Memory supports passing memory slices across asynchronous methods, which is suitable for scenarios where more flexible life cycles are required; 3. Both reduce GC pressure, optimize performance by reusing buffers and avoiding temporary copying; 4. Span is limited to use on the stack and cannot be stored in classes or used in asynchronous methods. Be careful to avoid reassignment operations such as calling.ToArray().

SOLID principle is five design principles to improve code maintainability and scalability in object-oriented programming. They are: 1. The single responsibility principle (SRP) requires that the class only assumes one responsibility, such as separating report generation and email sending; 2. The opening and closing principle (OCP) emphasizes that the extension is supported through interfaces or abstract classes without modifying the original code, such as using the IShape interface to realize area calculation of different graphics; 3. The Richter replacement principle (LSP) requires that the subclass can replace the parent class without destroying logic, such as Square should not mistakenly inherit Rectangle, resulting in abnormal behavior; 4. The interface isolation principle (ISP) advocates the definition of fine-grained interfaces, such as split printing and scanning functions to avoid redundant dependencies; 5. The dependency inversion principle (DIP) advocates the
