When getting started with ASP.NET MVC and/or the ASP.NET Web API, it can be overwhelming trying to figure out how it all works. These frameworks offer powerful features, and abstract away a good deal of pain associated with handling, routing, and responding to HTTP requests within an application. This is a great thing for seasoned developers who understand what it is the framework is doing "for" you (and how to modify that behavior, if desired). It also makes it easier for new or less-experienced folk to set up a basic site or API and watch it "just work." On the other hand, the abstraction can make it challenging for those new to the MVC world to understand just what is going on, and where the critical functionality they want to modify "lives."
