I am trying to create an ASP.NET MVC web application,I'm trying to understand what is the use of the check mark "WebAPI" ,I don't seem to find any different selecting or unselecting this while creating the project,can anyone throw some light?
ASP.NET Web API is a framework that makes it easy to build HTTP services that reach a broad range of clients, including browsers and mobile devices. ASP.NET Web API is an ideal platform for building RESTful applications on the .NET Framework. Web API: Guidance.
You can take knowledge from this video. Thanks

I am a beginner to angular4 wanted to integrate angular with asp.net MVC,
Should I use the only Angular to develop web Application or with MVC ?
AngularJS is a Client Side web (for browser) development framework, and it has nothing to do with the server-side stuff (eg. database related operations or managing user session).
You can use ASP.NET MVC with angular, but it's a good practice to use WEB API, because the View part from MVC will be taking care by the angular framework.
It shouldn't be a problem. You'll need to add a json api to your .net app but people do it all the time. As with everything, right tools for the right job though.
I did some research around but I have some doubts still about following topic...
I have Silverlight/RIA Services project that needs to have ASP.NET MVC look as well as WebAPI for some different clients.
So my question is following
Can we use somehow RIA Services with ASP.NET MVC 5?
And if not what is a painless way to represent all existing logic in ASP.NET MVC?
Thank you!
Ria services have nothing to do with look and feel.
A Silverlight app or a non plugin, which uses RIA services can be hosted in a web page created using ASP.Net.
Can we use somehow RIA Services with ASP.NET MVC 5?
Yes.
RIA services which could be used by an asp.net backend would not gain the benefit of RIA services because changes made in the backend end are not generated forward to an application such as a Silverlight plugin. It just becomes another way of accessing data.
I want to know if Angular JS can be used with ASP.NET MVC architecture in any way? I have tried searching on Google, but can't figure out if Angular JS is usable in .cshtml page of ASP.NET MVC and is it the good idea to use it?
you can definitely use AngularJs with Asp.Net MVC as it is a client side framework which entirely runs in the browser. It doesn't depend on any of the Asp.Net features as such. There are lot of samples available online. Here is a channel 9 video which guides you through
From the official ASP.net pages: Hands On Lab: Build a Single Page Application (SPA) with ASP.NET Web API and Angular.js
The fact that is uses WebAPI shouldn't really matter here, as that's a detail matter of implementation. AngularJS works fine on top of either.
First hit on google...
If you looking to achieve CRUD in your application I recommend this post as a guide to follow. Even though this uses WEB API, its still a good way of getting to grips with angularjs.
Hope this helps.
CRUD with SPA, ASP.NET Web API and Angular.js
I am an MVC.NET developer but never used API web service before in an MVC project.
I just want to know like for WCF services we use different project in the application usually. Likewise, what is best practice likewise for web API services and how they work with proxy design patterns extra?
In my current application I am using WCF services but I am keen to learn if API web service can replace it and how?
yes , you can replace with API service.
For your project structure , you can refer below link content.
Implement ASP.Net Web API in ASP.Net MVC 5
http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/4b0136/implement-Asp-Net-web-api-2-in-Asp-Net-mvc-5/
I am starting to develop with Web Api MVC 4 and created the whole stack. My services are working but I wonder if it is possible to see a Help Page similar to what exists on WCF.
Does anyone know?
Thanks
