## _ViewStart File
The _ViewStart file in the Shared folder (inside the Views folder) contains the following:
@{Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml";}
This code is automatically added to all views displayed by the application.
If you delete this file, you must add this line of code to all views.
In later chapters of this tutorial, you will learn more about views.
