The .NET world has changed, and decidedly for the better. Not only is .NET Core now an open source framework, you can now develop and run .NET web applications on Linux. Throughout the course of this book, you will grow familiar with .NET Core, learn how to use .NET editing tools, create complex .NET web apps and debug them, and how to work with the same code in Linux and Windows.
This book explains how to:
-
Build a "hello world" console, and web apps to examine code output.
-
Create a more complex model-view-controller (MVC) web app with the ASP.NET MVC framework.
