Web API Development with ASP.NET Core 8: Learn techniques, patterns, and tools for building high-performance, robust, and scalable web APIs

Introduction to Web API Development with ASP.NET Core 8

In today's digital landscape web APIs have become the backbone of modern software development enabling seamless communication between different applications services and systems. As a result the demand for skilled developers who can design build and maintain high-performance robust and scalable web APIs has never been higher. To address this need I am excited to introduce my book "Web API Development with ASP.NET Core 8 Learn techniques patterns and tools for building high-performance robust and scalable web APIs."

Detailed Summary of the Book

This book is a comprehensive guide to building web APIs using ASP.NET Core 8 a popular and widely-used framework for developing web applications. The book is divided into several chapters each focusing on a specific aspect of web API development including

• Introduction to web APIs and ASP.NET Core 8 including the benefits and advantages of using this framework.
• Designing and building RESTful web APIs including API endpoint design request and response handling and error handling.
• Implementing security and authentication mechanisms including JWT OAuth and OpenID Connect.
• Working with data storage and retrieval including Entity Framework Core and other data access technologies.
• Implementing caching logging and monitoring mechanisms to improve API performance and reliability.
• Testing and debugging web APIs including unit testing integration testing and debugging techniques.
• Deploying and hosting web APIs including options for cloud hosting containerization and serverless deployment.

Throughout the book I provide practical examples code snippets and real-world scenarios to illustrate key concepts and techniques making it easy for readers to follow along and apply the knowledge to their own projects.
