You might not have noticed but, we did use parts of the MVC (Model-View-Controller) pattern before when we built our first block. A block consists of a controller located in a file named controller.php and a view, by default named view.php. There can also be more views in the templates directory, which are called custom block templates in concrete5.
In concrete5, most pages are created from a page type. It's what you mostly do when you add a new page in the sitemap, but there are single pages such as /login and /dashboard as well. Their functionality is usually unique, and thus called a single page. A single page is what we're going to create when we print output from an application in concrete5, which follows the MVC pattern.
