Riassunto

Build fully-featured APIs with ASP.NET Core! This all-practical guide is written like a real development project, taking you hands-on with modern APIs utilizing REST and GraphQL standards.

In Building Web APIs with ASP.NET Core you will learn how to:

• Set up your environment with VS 2022, Node, Git, and more
• Create a ASP.NET Core project from scratch
• Integrate with SQL Server
• Use Entity Framework Core to set up a data model
• Create back-end controllers
• Design an API to serve data
• Write API documentation using Swagger and Swashbuckle
• Consume an API using typical web client-side frameworks
• Handle requests and routes using controllers and Minimal API
• Release and deploy your Web API in production on cloud-based hosting services such as MS Azure

Building Web APIs with ASP.NET Core is a practical beginner’s guide to creating your first web APIs using ASP.NET Core. In it, you’ll develop an API that feeds web-based services, including websites and mobile apps, for a board games application. The book is cleverly structured to mirror a real-world development project, with each chapter introducing a new feature request. You’ll build your API with an ecosystem of ASP.NET Core tools that help simplify everything from setting up your data model to generating documentation.

Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.

About the Technology

Web APIs are the front door to an application, providing controlled access to its data and features. ASP.NET Core, Microsoft’s web framework, simplifies and accelerates API creation with powerful, developer-friendly features, including an innovative “no compile” coding experience. It is reliable, fast, free, open-source, and backed by Microsoft’s legendary support.

About the Book

Building Web APIs with ASP.NET Core teaches you how to write safe, maintainable, and performant REST APIs. It’s full of best practices for modern and classic API styles, including REST and GraphQL. You’ll love the groundbreaking Minimal API model that helps you build pro-quality APIs with just a few lines of code. Each chapter contains realistic user stories, backlog items, and development tasks.
