The author takes a learn as you build approach by walking through the development of a simple shopping cart application, but still manages to include enough how and why explanations so that you will actually learn what is going on. Well written and fairly comprehensive for a book covering two big frameworks. You will need to know c# and js and probably want some background with .net core and some introductory understanding of vue.I was able to follow along and build the entire application from scratch with no problems other than those I introduced myself through typos. I appreciated the use of Visual Studio Code and Postgres so the book is usable regardless of platform .net core supports.

As a developer familiar with ASP.NET Core, I bought this book to learn Vue.js with an ASP.NET Core slant and I am glad I did. Stuart walks you through the process of setting up a secure e-commerce site with Vue.js front-end and ASP.NET Core back-end/API. The completed project is maintained on github and contrary to some comments, it runs perfectly for me. The app front-end and back-end is a good reference architecture for medium size projects and the book walks you through each stage of the construction in a measured and informative style. Stuart goes into detail on most aspects of the build and I took a lot from his software architecting skills. I have read a few technical books recently which has been riddled with errors but this is not one of them. The writing quality is excellent and the review process has obviously been thorough.If you are a complete novice at front-end and back-end software development this is perhaps not the perfect book to read first but if you have the basic skills in web development already then this book will set you on an excellent path.In addition, Stuart has been very helpful in assistance with questions relating to subjects beyond the book.I would recommend this book highly.

One of the best programming books I have ever read; Provides excellent introduction and guidance into creating a Vue SPA with .NET Core backend. I picked up multiple tips to assist with the application I am currently writing.It contains a lot of code for the sample web shop application but manages not to get bogged down in repetitively describing thsi code and how it works. The sample application (a phone webshop) gets built from scratch to a fully functional application with user authorisation, credit card handling and basic admin pages. Also includes processes such as setting up the development enviroment and continuous deployments to azure. Since it is so current (as at Aug 2018) the screen shots and guidance match current enviroment well.

This book is Linux friendly. So far, I finished five chapters and I was able to run all the samples under Linux environment.Building a PhoneShop application from scratch is a good approach for learning ASP.Net and Vue.js.

Mark R. Dalsaso May 20, 2019

Following along with the PhoneShop shopping cart application is a good way to learn these technologies. I'm wrapping up chapter 5 now and I feel like it's going to to take a month (at least ) to get through this Odyssey! I'm not sure including all of the refactorings, (as exercises) is a good approach. However, there are a great many things to glean from this book, it is comprehensive, to say the least.
