Discover the first ASP.NET Core MVC example, learn how controllers, views, and models interact, the role of index actions, view results, and basic post handling.
Discover how program.cs powers startup in ASP.NET Core with the web application builder and dependency injection. Learn how services, middleware, Kestrel hosting, and configuration (appsettings.json) initialize and run the app.
Learn how tag helpers replace html helpers to generate server-side HTML in Razor views, with asp-for binding, built-in tag helpers, and managing tag helpers via add, remove, and prefixes.
Explore anchor and image tag helpers, learn how they convert server-side tags into client html, and apply asp-protocol, asp-route, asp-all-route-data, asp-page, and asp-append-version for dynamic urls and cache busting.
Learn to use the form tag helper with action, method, and anti-forgery tokens, and apply input and select tag helpers with asp-for and asp-items in ASP.NET Core 8.
Understand how html forms submit data to the server, including inputs, checkboxes, radios, selects, and file uploads, with rules on nesting, submit buttons, and enctype.
ASP.NET Core 8 is a powerful and cross-platform framework used to build modern web applications and Web APIs.
In this course, you will learn ASP.NET Core 8 from fundamentals to advanced concepts with a step-by-step approach. The course begins with an introduction to ASP.NET Core and gradually moves into building real applications using Razor Pages and MVC architecture.
You will understand how RESTful protocols work and how web applications process requests and responses. You will learn application startup configuration, dependency injection, and the middleware pipeline, which are core concepts in ASP.NET Core development.
The course covers Razor Views in detail, including Razor syntax, directives, partial views, layout pages, and view components. You will also learn HTML Helpers, Tag Helpers, and model binding to handle form submissions effectively.
Validation techniques such as data annotations, custom validations, and client-side validations are explained clearly with practical examples.
You will learn how to configure web applications, manage environment variables, and work with state management techniques such as cookies, sessions, ViewData, ViewBag, and TempData.
The Web API section covers building REST APIs using ASP.NET Core, integrating Entity Framework Core, using HttpClient, and documenting APIs with Swagger.
Authentication and authorization concepts are explained in depth, including ASP.NET Core Identity, role-based authorization, external authentication providers, and JWT token-based security.
Advanced topics such as SignalR for real-time applications are also included.
This course also includes quiz questions for practice, helping you test your understanding and strengthen your concepts.
By the end of this course, you will have strong conceptual clarity and confidence to work on real-world ASP.NET Core 8 applications.
