Description

Extensively revised to accommodate the latest features that come with C# 11 and .NET 7, this latest edition of our guide will get you coding in C# with confidence. You’ll learn object-oriented programming, writing, testing, and debugging functions, implementing interfaces, and inheriting classes. Next, you’ll take on .NET APIs for performing tasks like managing and querying data, working with the filesystem, and serialization. As you progress, you’ll also explore examples of cross-platform projects you can build and deploy, such as websites and services using ASP.NET Core. Instead of distracting you with unnecessary graphical user interface code, the first eleven chapters will teach you about C# language constructs and many of the .NET libraries through simple console applications. Having mastered the basics, you’ll then start building websites, web services, and browser apps. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to create rich web experiences and have a solid grasp of object-oriented programming that you can build upon.

Who is this book for?

This book is primarily for beginners, but intermediate-level C# and .NET programmers who have worked with C# in the past and want to catch up with the changes made in the past few years will also find plenty of useful information in it. Prior exposure to C# or .NET is not a prerequisite, but you should have a general understanding of programming before you jump in. If you already have some C# and .NET skills and want to focus on developing apps, we recommend that you pick up Mark’s other .NET book, Apps and Services with .NET 7, instead.

What you will learn

Build rich web experiences using Blazor, Razor Pages, the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern, and other features of ASP.NET Core

Write, test, and debug functions

Query and manipulate data using LINQ

Integrate and update databases in your apps using Entity Framework Core models

Build and consume powerful services using the latest technologies, including Web API and Minimal API

For .NET 6 developers:

C# 11 can be used with .NET 6, including features like raw string literals

EF Core 7 targets .NET 6, so you can benefit from its new features like ExecuteUpdate and ExecuteDelete for more efficient data modifications

The material covered was thorough and concise. The examples were good, code was clean and illustrated the topic clearly. Chapters were organized well and in a good sequence to advance the narrative in a logical way. This is a great book to learn from and I highly recommend it for both beginners and seasoned professionals to have around as reference material. It will certainly remain in my library for some time to come.

I so much love this book! IMO, it's written both to be a reference book and something you can sit down and read all the way through. The language isn't lofty either. You'll be able to understand no matter what level you're at. The earlier chapters provide a nice foundation to build off of so at a certain point, you can skip to different chapters and keep up with what Mark is talking about. Just know that if you read the whole thing, you'll will feel confident to start building scalable applications or even contribute to some .NET apps on Github.You can leave behind scouring the internet to piece-meal your C#/.NET knowledge. This is ground-zero for many C# devs or those who aspire to be.I'm glad I have this on my shelf to reference in my day to day development.

I received an early review copy of this book, having previously worked through the sixth edition of it. If all programming books were like this one, the world would be a better place. Some authors seem to be in love with the sound of their own voices and lard their books with huge discussions of esoteric facts. Mr. Lewis keeps the discussions to a minimum and emphasizes writing code.The parts in which you are meant to edit and run coding lessons are logical and to the point. Each exercise builds on the previous one and, if you pay attention to what you are doing, lead to a thorough understanding of what is being taught. On the very rare occasions that I can’t get the code to work, it’s usually the result of a stupid typing error on my part. When I simply can’t figure out what went wrong, Mark is invariably helpful with suggestions that are to the point.The bottom line is that this book is, in my opinion, the finest example of what programming training should be. Highly recommended.

Das Buch behandelt viele Themen und gibt damit einen guten Überblick. Auf viele Details wird verwiesen, anstatt sie in das Buch zu packen. Es wird davon ausgegangen, dass man in der Lage ist Detailinformationen selber im Internet nachzulesen. Gut strukturiert. Gute Codebeispiele. E-Book gratis mit Printausgabe. Meiner Meinung nach kein Buch für Programmieranfänger.

As a reader of the previous two editions, I was looking forward to the C# 11 updates in this edition.The author does a great job of writing this book in a way that makes it both an accessible learning tool and an essential reference. You'll want to pick up a copy of this book whether you're new to C# and .NET or you're experienced and want to have a handy reference when you dive into a new feature.You can check out the table of contents to see what's covered, but some highlights for me were the sections on EF Core, .NET Interactive Notebooks (now Polyglot Notebooks), and the new Raw String Literals feature in C# 11.As an author of another .NET book (on Parallel Programming), I know what a monumental effort it is to write a book, and this particular book is one of the best available for programmers. Kudos to Mark and the team that put this together this year! It is a wonderful update.
