Managing Scripts and Styles
In this chapter, we show you how the ASP.NET bundles feature works. This feature is new in ASP.NET 4.5, and it can simplify the management and maintenance of the script files and style sheets that an application uses. Bundles can also be used to optimize the requests that a browser has to make in order to get script files and style sheets, which we explain in detail.
