Mastering Minimal APIs in ASP.NET Core
The Minimal APIs feature, introduced in .NET 6, answers code complexity and rising dependencies in creating even the simplest of APIs. Minimal APIs facilitate API development using compact code syntax and help you develop web APIs quickly.
This practical guide explores Minimal APIs end-to-end and helps you take advantage of its features and benefits for your ASP.NET Core projects. The chapters in this book will help you speed up your development process by writing less code and maintaining fewer files using Minimal APIs. Youβll also learn how to enable Swagger for API documentation, along with CORS, and handle application errors. The book even promotes ideas to structure your code better using the dependency injection library in .NET. Finally, you'll learn about performance and benchmarking improvements for your apps.
By the end of this book, youβll be able to fully leverage new features in .NET 6 for API development and explore how Minimal APIs are an evolution over classical web API development in ASP.NET Core.

Learning GitHub on LinkedIn Learning
GitHub is the industry-standard tool for collaborating on and sharing code. Itβs popular among software developers, project managers, designers, and students for its flexibility and control. This course introduces GitHub and Git, the version control system that GitHub is built upon. Instructor Emanuele Bartolesi shows how GitHub can create collaborative workflows for you and your team. Explore how version control enables you and your team to track the changes in your files, maintain a history of them, and get some advice on working better with open-source projects. Emanuele gives you the knowledge you need to be able to select appropriate projects to be pushed to GitHub, successfully initialize Git on an existing project, navigate the GitHub UI to perform common tasks like branching, commits, and pull requests, and more.
