ASP.NET Core Introduction

ASP.NET Core is the new web framework from Microsoft. It has been redesigned from the ground up to be fast, flexible, modern, and work across different platforms. Moving forward, ASP.NET Core is the framework that can be used for web development with .NET. If you have any experience with MVC or Web API over the last few years, you will notice some familiar features. At the end this tutorial, you will have everything you need to start using ASP.NET Core and write an application that can create, edit, and view data from a database.

What is ASP.NET Core

ASP.NET Core is an open source and cloud-optimized web framework for developing modern web applications that can be developed and run on Windows, Linux and the Mac. It includes the MVC framework, which now combines the features of MVC and Web API into a single web programming framework.
  • ASP.NET Core apps can run on .NET Core or on the full .NET Framework.
  • It was architected to provide an optimized development framework for apps that are deployed to the cloud or run on-premises.
  • It consists of modular components with minimal overhead, so you retain flexibility while constructing your solutions.
  • You can develop and run your ASP.NET Core apps cross-platform on Windows, Mac and Linux.

Advantages of ASP.NET Core

ASP.NET Core comes with the following advantages −
  • ASP.NET Core has a number of architectural changes that result in a much leaner and modular framework.
  • ASP.NET Core is no longer based on System.Web.dll. It is based on a set of granular and well factored NuGet packages.
  • This allows you to optimize your app to include just the NuGet packages you need.
  • The benefits of a smaller app surface area include tighter security, reduced servicing, improved performance, and decreased costs
With ASP.NET Core, you can get the following improvements −
  • Build and run cross-platform ASP.NET apps on Windows, Mac and Linux.
  • Built on .NET Core, which supports true side-by-side app versioning.
  • New tooling that simplifies modern wWeb development.
  • Single aligned web stack for Web UI and Web APIs.
  • Cloud-ready environment-based configuration.
  • Built-in support for dependency injection.
  • Tag Helpers which makes Razor markup more natural with HTML.
  • Ability to host on IIS or self-host in your own process.

ASP.NET Core - MVC Setup

Here we will set up the MVC framework in our FirstAppDemo application. We will proceed by building a web application on top of the ASP.NET Core, and more specifically, the ASP.NET Core MVC framework. We can technically build an entire application using only middleware, but ASP.NET Core MVC gives us the features that we can use to easily create HTML pages and HTTP-based APIs. To setup MVC framework in our empty project, follow these steps − Install the  Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc  package, which gives us access to the assemblies and classes provided by the framework. Once the package is installed, we need to register all of the services that ASP.NET MVC requires at runtime. We will do this inside the  ConfigureServices  method. Finally, we need to add middleware for ASP.NET MVC to receive requests. Essentially this piece of middleware takes an HTTP request and tries to direct that request to a C# class that we will write. Step 1  − Let us go to the NuGet package manager by ri
