ASP.NET Core - App Building Workshop

Setup

.NET Core SDK 2.0

Offline (on USB drive)

Run the appropriate SDK installer for your platform in the dotnet-sdk-2.0.0 folder

Online

Download and run SDK installer for your platform:

Visual Studio 2017 (Version 15.3)

If you're using Windows, you'll want to install Visual Studio 2017 15.3. You can install multiple versions of Visual Studio 2017 side by side, so you won't need to modify your existing Visual Studio 2017 install if you don't want. The Community edition is free to install and is suitable to complete this workshop.

Offline Installer (if available)

Since conference WiFi can be a little slow, we'll try to have some USB sticks with offline installers.

  2. Select only the following workloads:
    • .NET desktop development
    • ASP.NET and web development
    • Azure development

What you'll be building

In this workshop, you'll learn by building a full-featured ASP.NET Core application from scratch. We'll start from File/ New and build up to an API back-end application, a web front-end application, and a common library for shared data transfer objects using .NET Standard.
