Pro ASP.NET Core 6: Develop Cloud-Ready Web Applications Using MVC, Blazor, and Razor Pages

I've been working with this book for a few hours and I love it because it offers an organized, focused view into a clear topic with enough of the details right that I have been able to follow along. So far, there is nothing I don't like about this book. One nice feature is that the author provides detailed instructions for using EITHER Visual Studio or VSCode.I believe it is not suitable, however, for newcomers to IT because it is impossible for the author to anticipate every detail that could go astray; some troubleshooting has been required.

Good book, recommended. Well organized and you will learn quite a bit.Curious problem solving, over reliance on command line tasks when VS would give you the solution with a few clicks.On page 74, "I prefer to add Console.Writeline statements", and "This may seem line madness if you are a dedicated user of the debugger"Yup.

This book tries to teach all things taking a user from knowing nothing to an advanced user. I'm 140 pages into this 1286 page beast (very small font), and only 25 pages have really been about writing ASP.NET code. Every example is given for both Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code. Commands are given in PowerShell. My company bought me this powerful point and click tool (Visual Studio), yet because of Microsoft's balkanization the author has me perform all commands in PowerShell. Point and click I can remember, PowerShell will require me to refer to the book forever.Chapter 1 - 10 pages on why ASP.NET is so balkanized; a good chapter.Chapter 2 - 22 pages. How to install and run both Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code.Chapter 3 - 25 pages. An actual ASP.NET application.Chapter 4 - 15 pages on tools that should be 5 pages in a focused book.Chapter 5 - 45 pages on C#. This should be a prerequisite for the book.Chapter 6 - 19 pages on unit testing. This includes a page that repeats a code listing with a single line of code changed from a previous listing. Only 2 lines of prose on this page.This book tries to be all things to all people. I would prefer a more focused book.

Coming from the Java world into ASP.NET in 2022, saw this as I needed some additional references, but not a beginner book that introduces basic programming concepts. Although I'm nowhere near completing the whole thing, it has been an excellent book. Not too verbose, and good examples. You can tell the author is a tech veteran. Only thing I'd like to see is the index expanded to find additional items.

Adam Freeman's "Pro ASP.NET Core 6" (9th edition) is an excellent, up-to-date survey of the current state of .NET 6 web development. It's full of great examples and helpful tips. An invaluable resource for any C# developer's bookshelf!

Great book and a good prices for a college book.

I've purchased everyone of Adam's books since "Pro ASP.NET MVC 3 Framework ".Thanks to his books, I am employed and making $100,000+ a year.

Pros: This book contains a deep dive into everything you need to know about ASP.NET.Cons: The code examples are difficult to read in the Kindle version for two reasons:1) The code is very poorly formatted. The lines wrap, there's no syntax highlighting, and there's no contrast with the surrounding text.2) Code example are repeated in their entirety, even when a single change has been added, and the differences are not highlighted or bolded at all. This makes it tedious to find the small change the author is referring to.If they could fix these code formatting issues, this would be a 5 star book.

Very fast.

Ótimo livro sobre ASP.NET Core 6, o autor constroi um projeto do zero (Sportstore) em que ele faz um carrinho de compras, navegação, painel do administrador e também a parte de segurança. Mais pro final do livro tem um capitulo sobre ASP.NET Core Identity em que é mostrado como utilizar os Tokens e como autentica-los, tem também algumas coisas sobre Blazor e Razor Pages. O livro é em grande parte colorido (19 imagens em preto e branco e 419 imagens coloridas). Comprei o livro pra ser meu guia por assim dizer no meu projeto do TCC da faculdade e não me arrependo. Recomendo a qualquer um que queira se aprofundar em ASP.NET Core 6Obs: é um livro Intermediário/Professional sobre o ASP.NET Core 6, então recomendo a quem comprar que tenha um conhecimento base de C#, CSS, HTML e JS (ele usa CSS, HTML e JS no front da aplicação Sportstore).

L'apporoccio per esempi in genere lo dispezzo ma questo libro ne fa un buon uso e oltre agli esempi spiega anche in modo abbastanza approfondito il funzionamento del framework. Il numero di pagine e' considerevole ma molte sono solo l'introduzione al capitolo e il tutorial su dove e come scaricare l'esempio. Ripeto non mi piace l' approccio per esempi, preferisco piccoli snippet che non si dilungano per piu' di un paio di pagine, ma questo libro alla fine usa gli esempi in modo intelligente e li ho apprezzati piu' del solito.

Not for beginners, and definitely not a reference book. It IS, however, absolutely perfect for the target audience: people who, like myself, have experience with C#/.NET but need to transfer their skills over to web apps. This book is extremely thorough and detailed just as needed, and doesn't leave you with the feeling that you're missing anything. 10/10 will definitely reccomend.

An excellent tutorial, but not a reference text.
