CSHTML (ASP.NET Razor Web Page) is an open format file extension used specifically in Microsoft Visual Studio for creating web content with advanced coding techniques. Files with CSHTML .cshtml suffix contain markup code written using the Razor syntax which is a combination of C# and HTML. It creates dynamic web pages, entity classes and models using Entity Framework. The CSHTML files are executed server-side using ASP.NET, converting the code into HTML documents that are transmitted to the user's browser. This provides developers many advantages such as fast development, re-use of existing code, strong type checking and the ability to build a single page application with JavaScript libraries.
Power of CSHTML
The CSHTML structure gives developers a powerful way to create web pages with detailed control over structure and styling as well as capability to work directly with databases. Utilizing the Razor syntax allows developers to mix C# language logic within their HTML documents in order to do complex tasks such as iterating over collections, performing complex functions and more. This unique combination eliminates the need of managing two separate files for the same web page; therefore, it reduces switching between different language contexts and decreasing time-consumption during the development process. Similar web page extensions are ASPX .aspx, ASPM aspm, ASCX .ascx, and MASTER .master.
Programs for WINDOWS system
Programs for LINUX system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .CSHTML) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .CSHTML extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .CSHTML file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .CSHTML extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .CSHTML extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .CSHTML file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .CSHTML file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .CSHTML file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .CSHTML file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .CSHTML file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
