It is a classic work that includes a description of MVC.


MVC, like REST, is more misunderstood than understood. Every UI framework seems to claim to be MVC, while meaning something different.

MVC is a pattern invented for programming graphical user interfaces, before the web existed.

The notion that you should use in organising domain logic, but not front end, user interface logic is perplexing.
