I appreciate hacky sack on a much deeper level than you.
I want to make a web-app that will for the most part present itself as a single page to users (push butrons, new content will be generated, push more buttons, repeat), but the heavy lifting for generating new content will be server side.

Should I get started with the MVC or the SPA template in VS 2013?

Can anyone recommend a prescribed order for reading C# In Depth (Skeet), Dependency Injection in .NET (Seeman), and Art of Unit Testing (Osherove)?


I'm working on a project whose components I understand, but I feel unqualified to make the high level design decisions that underlie much of the work. I'm not in a huge rush - I hope to cobble a small working prototype by September - but I want to do things as correctly as I can in the meantime. Hence, the books.

That has more or less been my plan. I really don't have any experience with unit testing, but given everyone's opinion on it I'm terrified to write code for my own applications before I understand some of it. The big problem is that lots and lots of this system will be non-deteministic in nature, so I'm still not sure exactly where and how to appropriately unit test.

I'm taking reading suggestions, too, by the way :)

This isn't advice, but commiseration. I've never had success with a VS integrated version control system except in the cases where I use the system to create a new local project from an existing repo.
