To get the most out of this book

The readers should have basic knowledge of ASP.NET Core and C#, as well as of Visual Studio, Visual Studio Code, or any other code editor that supports ASP.NET Core and C#.

You should install the latest .NET 5 SDK on your machine. Please find the latest version on https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/.

Feel free to use any code editor you like that supports ASP.NET Core and C#. We recommend using Visual Studio Code (https://code.visualstudio.com/), which is available on all platforms and is used by the author of this book.

All the projects in this book will be created using a console, Command Prompt, shell, or PowerShell. Feel free to use whatever console you are comfortable with. The author uses Windows Command Prompt, hosted in the cmder shell (https://cmder.net/). We don’t recommend using Visual Studio to create the projects, because the basic configuration might change, and the web projects will start on a different port than described in this book.

Are you stuck with .NET Core 3.1? If you are not able to use .NET 5 on your machine for whatever reason, all the samples are also available and work with .NET Core 3.1. The chapters contain comparisons to .NET Core 3.1 whenever there are differences to .NET 5, as version 3.1 is still the current Long-Term Support version of .NET Core.

If you are using the digital version of this book, we advise you to type the code yourself or access the code via the GitHub repository (link available in the next section). Doing so will help you avoid any potential errors related to the copying and pasting of code.
