You want to build a web app, but the project choices can feel confusing. ASP.NET Core gives you five paths, and each one fits a different need. This course shows you what each path does and helps you pick the right one.

What You Will Learn

You compare the five main ASP.NET Core project types: Razor Pages, MVC, API, Blazor Server, and Blazor WebAssembly. You see how each one works through clear, hands-on demos. You build a full CRUD example for every project type with SQL Server.

Why This Course Helps

Many learners feel unsure about where to start. This course removes that stress. You see simple code, real examples, and the strengths and limits of each option. You gain the skills to choose the right project type for your next app.

The course catalog covers the full .NET stack: C# language fundamentals, ASP.NET Core for web development, Blazor for full-stack C# web applications, Entity Framework Core for data access, MAUI for cross-platform mobile, design patterns and SOLID principles, the testing tracks, Azure deployment, and the broader software-engineering craft topics (debugging, code review, project structure) that most pure-tutorial sources skip.
