Key benefits

  • Learn multiple ways to organize your application code and become a more flexible ASP.NET Core developer
  • Explore hands-on design patterns, learn architectural principles, and how to sidestep anti-patterns
  • Refactor code toward modern application design, such as feature-based vertical slice and clean architecture

Description

This unique ASP.NET Core book will fill in the gaps in your REST API and backend designs. Learn how to build robust, maintainable, and flexible apps using Gang of Four (GoF) design patterns and modern architectural principles. This new edition is updated for .NET 8 and focuses exclusively on the backend, with new content on REST APIs, the REPR pattern, and building modular monoliths. You’ll start by covering foundational concepts like REST, the SOLID principles, Minimal APIs, dependency injection in .NET, and other ASP.NET Core 8 mechanisms. Then, you’ll learn to develop components using design patterns, including many from the GoF. Finally, you’ll explore organizing your application code with patterns that vary from layers to feature-oriented vertical slice designs, covering CQS and a deep dive into microservices along the way. A brand-new e-commerce project at the end of the book will tie it all together. This how-to guide will teach you how to assemble your own APIs from building blocks, to suit whatever real-world requirements you may have.

Who is this book for?

This book is for intermediate-level ASP.NET Core developers who want to improve their C# app code structure and API design skills. ASP.NET developers who want to modernize their knowledge and enhance their technical architecture skills will also like this book. It’s also a good refresher for those in software design roles with more experience looking to update their expertise. A good knowledge of C# programming and a basic understanding of web concepts is necessary to get the most out of this book, though some refreshers are included along the way.

What you will learn

  • Apply the SOLID principles for building flexible and maintainable software
  • Test your apps effectively with automated tests, including black-box testing
  • Embark on mastering ASP.NET Core dependency injection
  • Work with GoF design patterns including strategy, decorator, facade, and composite
  • Design REST APIs using Minimal APIs and ASP.NET Core MVC
  • Discover layering and the tenets of clean architecture
  • Use feature-oriented techniques as an alternative to layering
  • Explore microservices, CQS, REPR, vertical slice architecture, and many more patterns

I just finished going through my copy of this, and I am impressed. There aren't many books written specifically for .NET developers that teach so many best practices. You can find books on some of the topics covered here: unit testing, TDD, MVC, minimal APIs, REST, SOLID principles, etc, but the author of this one gives you all of that and much more. You get enough information to provide a solid foundation, and you can move on to other resources if you feel you need to explore further to really 'get' something. If you're a .NET developer with some experience, even intermediate, this book is perfect for you to take the next step... especially if you're a web developer. Check it out!

I am enjoying a lot this book; I would say that it should be required reading for any backend .NET developer at intermediate and advanced levels.I found lots of very good material to learn, re-learn, unlearn, covering (in addition to the traditional GoF design patterns) the newest .NET 8 C#/ASP.NET API specific implementations of minimal APIs, microservices, vertical slicing, automated testing, etc.There are many other very good Architecture and Design Patterns books out there in general (ie: 'Clean Architecture') or specifically for the .NET platform (ie: 'Adaptive Code', 'Code that Fits in your Head') and others, but this book rounds up many essential and the latest concepts and presents them in a very comprehensive and appealing manner.The book focuses on the API/backend. It doesn't cover frontend .NET technologies like Blazor or MAUI; but perhaps it doesn't need to, there are many other books for those topics; it would have been nice, though, to maybe had covered couple of them (MVU, MVVM, etc.).I find the book a very interesting refresher, I'm still going through it and for me it's filling lots of gaps, gray areas and covering new ideas and design approaches.My specific approach is that I'm going through the concepts and examples step-by-step even if I feel I know the material.

This is a great and well-written book. It addresses several general programming scenarios that the modern .NET developer needs to be aware of and know how to handle.
