Special folders in a VS web site

Special folders in a VS web site.

Special folders can be added to a Web site from the Visual Studio menu system. Typically
this involves right-clicking the Web application project and selecting Add ASP.NET Folder.

Folder NameDescription
App_BrowsersContains browser definition files (.browser) that ASP.NET uses
to identify browsers and determine their capabilities. These
files are often used to help support mobile applications.
App_CodeContains source code for classes and business objects (.cs,
.vb, and .jsl files) that you want to compile as part of your
application
App_DataContains application data files (.mdf and .xml files)
App_GlobalResourcesContains resources (.resx and .resources files) that are compiled
into assemblies and have a global scope. Resource files
are used to externalize text and images from your application
code. This helps you support multiple languages and
design-time changes without recompilation of source code
App_LocalResourcesContains resources (.resx and .resources files) that are
scoped to a specific page, user control, or master page in an
application.
App_ThemesContains subfolders that each define a specific theme (or
look) for your site. A theme consists of files (such as .skin,
.css, and image files) that define the appearance of Web
pages and controls.
App_WebReferencesContains Web reference files (.wsdl, .xsd, .disco, and .discomap
files) that define references to Web services
BinContains compiled assemblies (.dll files) for code that you
want to reference in your application. Assemblies in the Bin
folder are automatically referenced in your application
