How do you manage ASP.NET MVC users, after deployment?

Question

How do you manage(CRUD) users in aspnet_db after you deploy your site?

Do you just create models for them after merging the aspnet_db database into your sites database?

And then create admin views to edit and manage them?

Answer 1

It depends. If you want to allow users to be managed through a web interface on your site, then yes you need to create models, controllers and views. In this case you are using the built-in Membership provider to create, update and delete users. If you don't need a web interface you could always remotely connect and administer the SQL database.

Good kit available from The ASP.NET MVC membership starter kit
