Deploying to Website

[Roshawn Dawson]

Hi,

I've just finished coding and testing my first asp.net app. Now I'm ready to transfer the files to
my webhost. But I have a few simple questions, though.

First, must I necessarily compile my app as a release build? I mean, will it affect my app
performance-wise if I didn't compile it as such?

Also, what files are actually needed by the web server to run an asp.net app? Does it need such
files with extensions as .resx, .vdisco, .webinfo, and others like the Visual Studio Solution and
VisualBasic.NET/C# Project File files?

Just one more: are the other small folders needed as well (_vti_cnf, _vti_pvt, _vti_script, and
_vti_txt)?


Thanks,
Roshawn

Thanks VitaminC.net for your response. I was unaware that it was that easy!
