ASP.NET Core - App Building Workshop

BackEnd Web API | FrontEnd Web App

Setup

Download and install the .NET Core SDK and Visual Studio.

Note: When installing Visual Studio you only need to install the ASP.NET and web development workload.

If you have issues downloading the installers we may have USB sticks with offline installers for you to use.

What you'll be building

In this workshop, you'll learn by building a full-featured ASP.NET Core application from scratch. We'll start from File/ New and build up to an API back-end application, a web front-end application, and a common library for shared data transfer objects using .NET Standard.
