C# 7 and .NET: Designing Modern Cross-platform Applications

By: Mark J. Price, Ovais Mehboob Ahmed Khan

Overview of this book

C# is a widely used programming language, thanks to its easy learning curve, versatility, and support for modern paradigms. The language is used to create desktop apps, background services, web apps, and mobile apps. .NET Core is open source and compatible with Mac OS and Linux. There is no limit to what you can achieve with C# and .NET Core. This Learning Path begins with the basics of C# and object-oriented programming (OOP) and explores features of C#, such as tuples, pattern matching, and out variables. You will understand.NET Standard 2.0 class libraries and ASP.NET Core 2.0, and create professional websites, services, and applications. You will become familiar with mobile app development using Xamarin.Forms and learn to develop high-performing applications by writing optimized code with various profiling techniques. By the end of C# 7 and .NET: Designing Modern Cross-platform Applications, you will have all the knowledge required to build modern, cross-platform apps using C# and .NET. This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products: • C# 7.1 and .NET Core 2.0 - Modern Cross-Platform Development - Third Edition by Mark J. Price • C# 7 and .NET Core 2.0 High Performance by Ovais Mehboob Ahmed Khan

Coding principles


In this section, we will cover some of the basic coding principles that help in writing quality code that improves the overall performance and scalability of the application.

Naming convention

Always use the proper naming convention in every application, starting with the solution name, which should provide meaningful information about the project you are working on. The project name specifies the layer or component part of the application. Finally, classes should be nouns or noun phrases, and methods should represent the actions.

When we create a new project in Visual Studio, the default solution name is set to what you specify for the project name. The solution name should always be different from the project name as one solution may contain multiple projects. The project name should always represent the specific part of the system. For example, suppose we are developing a messaging gateway that sends different types of messages to different parties and contains three components...
