The complete, pragmatic guide to building high-value solutions with
ASP.NET Core
Programming ASP.NET Core is the definitive guide to practical
web-based application development with Microsoft's new ASP.NET Core
framework. Microsoft MVP Dino Esposito introduces proven techniques and
well-crafted example code for solving real problems with ASP.NET Core.
Step by step, he guides you through using all key ASP.NET Core
technologies, including MVC for HTML generation, .NET Core, EF Core,
ASP.NET Identity, dependency injection, and much more. Esposito
thoroughly covers ASP.NET Core's cross-platform capabilities and what's
changed from older ASP.NET versions, but he doesn't stop there: he
offers a complete learning path for every developer who wants to build
production solutions, including mobile-specific solutions.
Microsoft MVP Dino Esposito shows how to:
- Create new projects and understand their structure
- Set up and use the familiar MVC application model in ASP.NET Core
- Write controller class code to govern all stages of request
processing
- Serve HTML from controllers, or directly via Razor Pages

views
- Manage cross-cutting concerns such as global configuration data,
error and exception handling, controller class design, and dependency
injection
- Secure applications with user authentication and ASP.NET Core's
policy-based user authorization API
- Design for efficient data access, and choose the right option for
reading and writing data
- Build ASP.NET Core Web APIs that return JSON, XML, or other data
- Use data binding to programmatically update visual components with
fresh information
- Build device-friendly web views for iOS and Android
- Explore the radically new ASP.NET Core runtime environment and
