|
Feel free to download it if you want to see the finished product, or
|
compare as you write your own code.
|
The book itself is updated frequently with bug fixes and new content. If
|
you're reading a PDF, e-book, or print version, check the official website
|
(littleasp.net/book) to see if there's an updated version available. The

Who this book is for
|
If you're new to programming, this book will introduce you to the
|
patterns and concepts used to build modern web applications. You'll
|
learn how to build a web app (and how the big pieces fit together) by

Introduction
|
building something from scratch! While this little book won't be able to
|
cover absolutely everything you need to know about programming, it'll
|
give you a starting point so you can learn more advanced topics.
|
If you already code in a backend language like Node, Python, Ruby, Go,
|
or Java, you'll notice a lot of familiar ideas like MVC, view templates, and
|
dependency injection. The code will be in C#, but it won't look too
|
different from what you already know.
|
If you're an ASP.NET MVC developer, you'll feel right at home! ASP.NET
|
Core adds some new tools and reuses (and simplifies) the things you
|
already know. I'll point out some of the differences below.
|
No matter what your previous experience with web programming, this
|
book will teach you everything you need to create a simple and useful
|
web application in ASP.NET Core. You'll learn how to build functionality
|
using backend and frontend code, how to interact with a database, and
|
how to deploy the app to the world.
|
What is ASP.NET Core?
|
ASP.NET Core is a web framework created by Microsoft for building web
|
applications, APIs, and microservices. It uses common patterns like MVC
|
(Model-View-Controller), dependency injection, and a request pipeline
|
comprised of middleware. It's open-source under the Apache 2.0 license,
|
which means the source code is freely available, and the community is
|
encouraged to contribute bug fixes and new features.
|
ASP.NET Core runs on top of Microsoft's .NET runtime, similar to the
|
Java Virtual Machine (JVM) or the Ruby interpreter. You can write
|
ASP.NET Core applications in a number of languages (C#, Visual Basic,
|
F#). C# is the most popular choice, and it's what I'll use in this book. You
|
can build and run ASP.NET Core applications on Windows, Mac, and
|
Linux.
