- Interacting with a SQL database using Entity Framework Core and SQLite
- A deep dive into components such as middleware, filters, validation, security, and configuration
Is This Workshop for Me?
This workshop is designed for programmers who are familiar with C# and .NET and want to learn how to build production-ready APIs.
Workshop Details
In this workshop, we’ll leverage C# and the .NET ecosystem to create production-ready APIs. We’ll dive headfirst into .NET tooling and creating your new API project, along with the fundamentals of the hosting model like logging and dependency injection. Then, we’ll create our first APIs and demonstrate the in-built integration testing tools. Next, we’ll look into using your API to interact with an SQL database as well as best practices to secure your API. Finally, we’ll go over some more advanced concepts like filters, OpenAPI integration, model building, and deployment.
Any Prerequisites?
- Experience with C# and the .NET fundamentals.
