Windows Forms to Web App

[Al Reid]

What is the best way to design and build a desktop application if you know
it will eventually become a web app? Any thoughts?

Dear AL Reid,

Well, from my friends and me, I will move most of the function into Class,
you may later calling those function from Your windows applcaition or web
applciation. You may also turning them into webservice.

Not much, however don't use shared classes and don't do things in your UI
wich are not special to that page.

Cor,

That makes sense. I was asked this question at an interview yesterday. I wasn't sure how to answer it. I was thinking there was
something within the framework that would allow this to happen with minimal pain since the question was asked while talking about
framework classers, etc.. After giving it more thought, I guess that correct answer would be to keep the presentation layer
separate from any business logic or data access.
