Getting Started with .NET Core

Explore a banking application built with .NET Core, a hands-on project that introduces object oriented programming, classes and libraries, and includes building a console app and reusable class library.

Create a dotnet core console app within a solution, add a banking client project, rename the main file to banking client, and print a welcome message before awaiting user input.

Create a dot net core class library for BankOfDotNet, follow naming conventions, and add an Account class while organizing projects and enabling line numbers in Visual Studio.

Create a public account class with a double balance property and a constructor that accepts an initial balance, then build and test it in the Bank of dot net library.

Reference the banking library in a dotnet core console app, create an account with $100, adjust by +$47 and -$150, and print the final balance.

Debug the BankOfDotNet banking client by setting breakpoints, stepping through constructors and account initialization, and inspecting variables to trace the final account balance in the console.

Explore encapsulation in a banking class by making the balance private and exposing a read-only public balance property, then implement deposit and withdraw methods with basic validation.

Explore encapsulation by restricting direct balance access and exposing a read-only balance, with deposit and withdraw methods. The lecture demonstrates a 47 deposit and a 150 withdrawal, with overdraft protection.
