In this section, we will build the backend of our Q & A app by creating a REST API for interacting with questions and answers as well as a SignalR server that gives real-time updates on answers. We'll use Dapper and Entity Framework Core behind the web API to interact with the SQL Server database.
This section comprises the following chapters:
- Chapter 7, Interacting with the Database with Dapper
- Chapter 8, Creating REST API Endpoints
- Chapter 9, Creating a Real-Time API with SignalR
- Chapter 10, Improving Performance and Scalability
- Chapter 11, Securing the Backend
- Chapter 12, Interacting with RESTful APIs
