Using WebMatrix helpers in desktop application

So, it seems to be a lot of niceties coming with WebMatrix.

E.g. the Json-helper and the simplified database api in WebMatrix.Data.

Is it possible to use these t开发者_Python百科hings in a regular application?

Some will work, some won't. The Json Helper should work just fine. I think the Database Helper should work just fine too. That said, all are untested since we're the ASP.NET team and just focused on the web. Would love to hear if they work in other projects for you.

It seems that you are referring to the helpers that are a part of ASP.NET Web Pages... (http://www.asp.net/web-pages)

A lot of these helpers come in the form of NuGet packages, and NuGet packages can in fact be used in any .NET application. Please see http://nuget.org/ for more information.
