Overview of this book

This book will walk you through the process of developing an e-commerce application from start to finish, utilizing an ASP.NET Core web API and Vue.js Single-Page Application (SPA) frontend. We will build the application using a featureslice approach, whereby in each chapter we will add the required frontend and backend changes to complete an entire feature. In the early chapters, we’ll keep things fairly simple to get you started, but by the end of the book, you’ll be utilizing some advanced concepts, such as server-side rendering and continuous integration and deployment. You will learn how to set up and configure a modern development environment for building ASP.NET Core web APIs and Vue.js SPA frontends.You will also learn about how ASP.NET Core differs from its predecessors, and how we can utilize those changes to our benefit. Finally, you will learn the fundamentals of building modern frontend applications using Vue.js, as well as some of the more advanced concepts, which can help make you more productive in your own applications in the future.

Tidying things up

Fundamentally, our admin panel is now complete, but there are a few things we need to do in order to just clean things up a little and fix a few minor bugs that have crept in as we've changed things.

Linking to the admin panel

For starters, the only way of accessing the admin panel is to manually enter /admin as the relative URL path in your browser. Some sites prefer this as an approach, so it's not obvious that such an area of the app even exists, unless you know it's there. However, if this isn't the case, then we need to add a link to it from our main nav menu—but only displayed if the current user belongs to the Admin role.
