ASP.NET core is an ocean and it is difficult to run across a book that accepts the challenge of teaching you everything you need to build applications using this platform confidently. This book accepts the challenge and teaches you almost everything you need to either get started, or get refreshed. The author meticulously starts with the basics of installing .NET Core, introduces you to one of the two available IDEs and teaches you the basics of building a basic .NET Core MVC application. Over the course of the book, the author carefully picks up concepts, teaches how to build a sample application and then moves on to the recently popular concepts of Blazor. The author even gives a quick intro to the needed C# features. The author has done a fantastic job in ensuring all the important concepts of routing, dependency injection, Web Services in .NET Core, model binding etc are covered in the book. It is rare to find a book that painstakingly covers everything we need, go give this book a shot, you will not be disappointed.
