ASP.NET Core 5 and Angular - Fourth Edition

By: Valerio De Sanctis

Overview of this book

Learning full-stack development calls for knowledge of both front-end and back-end web development. ASP.NET Core 5 and Angular, Fourth Edition will enhance your ability to create, debug, and deploy efficient web applications using ASP.NET Core and Angular. This revised edition includes coverage of the Angular routing module, expanded discussion on the Angular CLI, and detailed instructions for deploying apps on Azure, as well as both Windows and Linux. Taking care to explain and challenge design choices made throughout the text, Valerio teaches you how to build a data model with Entity Framework Core, alongside utilizing the Entity Core Fluent API and EntityTypeConfiguration class. You’ll learn how to fetch and display data and handle user input with Angular reactive forms and front-end and back-end validators for maximum effect. Later, you will perform advanced debugging and explore the unit testing features provided by xUnit.net (.NET 5) and Jasmine, as well as Karma for Angular. After adding authentication and authorization to your apps, you will explore progressive web applications (PWAs), learning about their technical requirements, testing, and converting SWAs to PWAs. By the end of this book, you will understand how to tie together the front end and back end to build and deploy secure and robust web applications.

At the end of the day, we can definitely say that we met the end goal of this chapter and learned a fair number of useful things: we know the location and purpose of both server-side and client-side source code files, we are able to remove existing content and insert new stuff, we are aware of the caching system and other setup parameters, and so on.

A relevant part of the chapter was dedicated to the Angular CLI: we've spent a good amount of time learning how to create a sample app using the ng new command and to understand the similarities and the differences...
