Create a Web API with ASP.NET Core. (video)

In this video, you will learn how to create a WEB API with ASP.NET CORE and C #.

We will create an API that supports Creating, Reading, Updating, and Deleting Data.

I used the following tools :

  • Visual Studio 2019
  • ASP.NET CORE and the .NET 5 SDK
  • Entity Framework Core
  • SQLite
  • Swagger UI

The final code can be found here: https://github.com/estyval/Web-API-With-ASP.NET-Core

Quick note for those interested in using something besides SQLite: The MongoDB OData extension allows you to use OData in you ASP.NET Core Web API apps. You can refer to this article to use the MongoDB extension for OData with MongoDB.

Very nice video. But was too short.

It was helpful though. I am sort of a beginner after watching the short video you made, it kind of made me salivate for more. I am hungry for knowledge as regards C#, building Api and all that has to do with Asp.Net. I would love if you can point me to a course or a repository where a major project was built with the things you spoke about in the video.

For a beginner in c#, Microsoft Learn has great courses and there are free.
