to be fair autofac is not really needed in most projects. you can even write a bunch of lines that will automatically register all your controller dependencies. (of course autofac makes this more simple). but I actually prefer explicit registration (i had the implicit variant on guice and as soon as the project was big, implicit is a mess).
