How to know the difference between controller classes and extension classes?

Ankit AroraAnkit Arora
If you are talking about the class used in controller ="" and extension ="" on VFP then there is no difference. Both are apex classes. Now there are some patterns which developers use to follow, like main controller which will hold only references, then extension/service class which will have all the logics, database layer/class where all queries will be executed. This is how classes are defined in patterns.
