What is a Web Application Project?

A Web Application Project is a Visual Studio 2005 project template.

Why would I use Web Application Projects?

The Web Application Projects template is ideal for web developers who are converting a Visual Studio .NET 2003 web project to Visual Studio 2005. The new Web Application Projects model provides the same Web project semantics as Visual Studio .NET 2003 Web projects. This includes a structure based on project files and a build model based on a single assembly. However, the new project type makes available all the new features of Visual Studio 2005, such as class diagrams, test development, and generics. The new project type also makes available all the new features of ASP.NET 2.0, such as master pages, data controls, membership and login, role management, Web Parts, personalization, site navigation, and themes.
