ASP.NET Core and Vue.js

Overview of this book

Vue.js 3 is faster and smaller than the previous version, and TypeScript’s full support out of the box makes it a more maintainable and easier-to-use version of Vue.js. Then, there's ASP.NET Core 5, which is the fastest .NET web framework today. Together, Vue.js for the frontend and ASP.NET Core 5 for the backend make a powerful combination. This book follows a hands-on approach to implementing practical methodologies for building robust applications using ASP.NET Core 5 and Vue.js 3. The topics here are not deep dive and the book is intended for busy .NET developers who have limited time and want a quick implementation of a clean architecture with popular libraries. You’ll start by setting up your web app’s backend, guided by clean architecture, command query responsibility segregation (CQRS), mediator pattern, and Entity Framework Core 5. The book then shows you how to build the frontend application using best practices, state management with Vuex, Vuetify UI component libraries, Vuelidate for input validations, lazy loading with Vue Router, and JWT authentication. Later, you’ll focus on testing and deployment. All the tutorials in this book support Windows 10, macOS, and Linux users. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to build an enterprise full-stack web app, use the most common npm packages for Vue.js and NuGet packages for ASP.NET Core, and deploy Vue.js and ASP.NET Core to Azure App Service using GitHub Actions.

Chapter 6: Diving into CQRS

If you are going to build big applications, separating the read and write operations of a data source can help the application scale up quickly in the future. The Command and Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS) pattern will help you write maintainable and testable code. The pattern would also be an ideal candidate for how to separate all the requests for reading and all the requests for modifying data.

This chapter is about the CQRS pattern, the mediator pattern, and the popular MediatR NuGet package for CQRS and pipeline behavior.

We will cover the following topics:

  • What is CQRS?
  • What is the mediator pattern?
  • What is the MediatR package?
  • Why learn CQRS?
  • When to use CQRS
  • Drawbacks of CQRS
