Overview of this book

The ASP.NET Core 2.0 Framework has been designed to meet all the needs of today’s web developers. It provides better control, support for test-driven development, and cleaner code. Moreover, it’s lightweight and allows you to run apps on Windows, OSX and Linux, making it the most popular web framework with modern day developers. This book takes a unique approach to web development, using real-world examples to guide you through problems with ASP.NET Core 2.0 web applications. It covers Visual Studio 2017- and ASP.NET Core 2.0-specifc changes and provides general MVC development recipes. It explores setting up .NET Core, Visual Studio 2017, Node.js modules, and NuGet. Next, it shows you how to work with Inversion of Control data pattern and caching. We explore everyday ASP.NET Core MVC 2.0 patterns and go beyond it into troubleshooting. Finally, we lead you through migrating, hosting, and deploying your code. By the end of the book, you’ll not only have explored every aspect of ASP.NET Core MVC 2.0, you’ll also have a reference you can keep coming back to whenever you need to get the job done.

Introduction


Building reusable components is one of the basic skills of the computer development world. The reuse of classes that are integrated in a .NET class library has been possible since the beginning of .NET. We are able to compile these classes in a .NET class library project as a DLL (dynamic link library), the implementation of a shared library by Microsoft.

Since the creation of Visual Studio 2010 and ASP.NET MVC's arrival on the scene, the ASP.NET world became more and more open source-friendly, and the necessity to share open source libraries and components became unavoidable.

To share libraries, Microsoft uses NuGet, an open source package manager used to install, uninstall, or update .NET libraries and components on projects through Visual Studio. We can also search for packages from Microsoft or anyone else in the NuGet Online repository, resolve missing packages, manage package dependencies from other packages, and support multiple frameworks.

In this way, we no longer have...
