❔ What makes two Controllers work differently?
I am not able to take the controller of one tutorial and apply it to the sample-project of another tutorial.
Both from Microsoft.
What is it that makes this "Welcome" function break the project?
What is it that makes these two projects controllers seemingly work differently from each other?

Both these code snippets are found from the beginners tutorial on MVC

Okey so plain html is an example of a primitive
Inheriting from ControllerBase and Controller are two completely different things
Not that I understand which I should start using

One of them uses "[HttpGet]" the other does not

You are saying don't use "[HttpGet]"

I'm guessing "[ApiController]" should only be used for APIs. But I also wan't to incorporate Razor pages into this project

I understand that the name of the function creates the path
I meant I want this mvc-project to create html-pages using razor

Yes I accidentally used a word "Razor pages" when I was not refering to that specific thing
So if I have this api project
It's using [ApiController] and it has "ControllerBase"
Now I want it to use Razor

I assumed I could just add some more controllers like this welcome function that would direct to a view

This project itself is not vital as you can see

I made another project to compare as you said
I thought I should perhaps make another controller that inherits Controller instead
I could see what "AddControllerAndView" was, and added it to the old project
Why does it seem to think all these things already exist?
Is this what you meant? It seems like errors arose from the solution

I made your solution work
Thank you so much @TeBeClone
