Mastering C# and .NET Framework

Overview of this book

Mastering C# and .NET Framework will take you in to the depths of C# 6.0/7.0 and .NET 4.6, so you can understand how the platform works when it runs your code, and how you can use this knowledge to write efficient applications. Take full advantage of the new revolution in .NET development, including open source status and cross-platform capability, and get to grips with the architectural changes of CoreCLR. Start with how the CLR executes code, and discover the niche and advanced aspects of C# programming – from delegates and generics, through to asynchronous programming. Run through new forms of type declarations and assignments, source code callers, static using syntax, auto-property initializers, dictionary initializers, null conditional operators, and many others. Then unlock the true potential of the .NET platform. Learn how to write OWASP-compliant applications, how to properly implement design patterns in C#, and how to follow the general SOLID principles and its implementations in C# code. We finish by focusing on tips and tricks that you'll need to get the most from C# and .NET. This book also covers .NET Core 1.1 concepts as per the latest RTM release in the last chapter.

Summary


In this final chapter, we saw three not-well-known aspects for distinct reasons, and that included a brief introduction to the new .NET Core and ASP.NET Core proposals that Microsoft presented officially this year.

This is the last chapter of this book in which I've reviewed the state of .NET Programming using (mainly, but not exclusively), the C# language.

We made a historic tour of the language in its different versions, including the latest stable, C# 7, and we've seen with a bunch of examples the way it behaves and how we can use it in distinct contexts and application scenarios.

We've also compared languages taking a sneak peek at other proposals, like the functional language F# and the popular TypeScript.

Data management has been another important topic, covering the two most popular models today (SQL and NoSQL), sampling how to use both, their advantages and caveats.

Finally, we've dedicated several chapters to traversal techniques which imply the whole application, like architecture...
