Overview of this book

Traditionally associated with Windows desktop applications and game development, C# has expanded into web, cloud, and mobile development. However, despite its extensive coding features, professionals often encounter issues with efficiency, scalability, and maintainability due to poor code. Clean Code in C# guides you in identifying and resolving these problems using coding best practices. This book starts by comparing good and bad code to emphasize the importance of coding standards, principles, and methodologies. It then covers code reviews, unit testing, and test-driven development, and addresses cross-cutting concerns. As you advance through the chapters, you’ll discover programming best practices for objects, data structures, exception handling, and other aspects of writing C# computer programs. You’ll also explore API design and code quality enhancement tools, while studying examples of poor coding practices to understand what to avoid. By the end of this clean code book, you’ll have the developed the skills needed to apply industry-approved coding practices to write clean, readable, extendable, and maintainable C# code.

Serverless

Serverless computing is a significant aspect of the microservices landscape, offering a different paradigm for building and deploying applications. Serverless platforms, such as AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, and others, allow developers to focus on writing code without managing the underlying infrastructure. Here are some key points related to serverless computing in the context of microservices:

  • Event-driven architecture: Serverless platforms excel in event-driven architectures, where functions (serverless units of code) are triggered by events such as HTTP requests, database changes, or file uploads. This aligns well with microservices, enabling the creation of independent, loosely coupled components that respond to specific events.
  • Scalability and cost efficiency: Serverless platforms automatically scale functions based on demand, providing a cost-efficient model where you pay only for the actual compute resources consumed during execution. Microservices can...
