Description
The .NET framework is getting better and better and more important in the web development world nowadays.Almost every request I get for new web development projects is asking for knowledge in .NET, including Web API and Entity Framework.So, knowing the fundamentals of back-end web development with .NET can be highly beneficial to your career. And that’s where this course comes in.In a short period of time, you will learn how to set up a Web API, make restful calls to this Web API and also save data persistently with Entity Framework, Code-First Migration, a SQL Server database, and all three types of relationships in this database.We will get right to the point, you will see every single step of writing the necessary code and by the end of this course, you will have what it takes to say ‘yes’ to all the .NET project requests from any recruiter.The only tool you need in the beginning is Visual Studio Code which is available for free.We will use Visual Studio Code for our implementations and make calls to the Web API with the help of Swagger UI - an interface that lets you consume the API out-of-the-box, thanks to the latest version of the .NET framework.Later, we will also utilize SQL Server Express and the SQL Server Management Studio to manage our database. These are also available for free.The back-end application we’re going to build is a small text-based role-playing game where different users can register (we’re going to use JSON web tokens for authentication) and create their own characters like a mage or a knight, add some skills and a weapon, and also let the characters fight against each other to see who is the best of them all.What You Will LearnIntroductionCreate your first Web API call in less than 10 minutesInitialize a Git repository for your source controlWeb APIThe Model-View-Controller (MVC) patternCreate models and controllersAttribute routing (with parameters)The HTTP request methods GET, POST, PUT & DELETEBest practices for your Web API like a ServiceResponse class and Data-Transfer-Objects (DTOs)Map your models with AutoMapperEntity Framework CoreObject-Relational-MappingCode-First MigrationSQL Server ExpressHow to use a DataContext and a proper ConnectionStringAll previous HTTP requests with Entity Framework Core to save your data in a SQL Server databaseData Seeding: Insert data with a migration programmaticallyAuthenticationToken Authentication with JSON Web TokensClaimsSecure controllers with the Authorize attributeAdd roles to the usersAdvanced Relationships with Entity Framework CoreOne-to-one relationshipsOne-to-many relationshipsMany-to-many relationshipsInclude entities with Entity Framework CoreGet the proper relations between entitiesMore Than Just CRUDStart automatic fightsFilter and order RPG characters by their highscoreThis course has been completely re-recorded with .NET 7.The lectures with the older versions of the .NET (Core) Framework - .NET 6, 5 & .NET Core 3.1 - are still available for reference.Your InstructorMy name is Patrick and I will be your instructor for this course. I’m a web developer for over a decade now, I have worked for big corporations and small teams, as an employee and a contractor and I just love to see the way Microsoft is going with .NET and how important it gets day by day.To this date, I was able to run ten courses on web development here on Udemy about ASP.NET, Blazor, single-page applications, Angular, and DevOps, with a total of over 75.000 unique students and more than 10.000 reviews.If you have any questions, feel free to connect.And if you still have any doubts, you have a 30-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked.So, I hope you’re ready for your new skills and your new projects! ;)I’m looking forward to seeing you in the course!Course image: practicuum/Shutterstock
