ASP.NET MVC 5 - Building a Website with Visual Studio 2015 and C Sharp: The Tactical Guidebook

Description

This book is primarily aimed at developers who have some prior experience with MVC 5 and are proficient in C#, since the language won’t be explained in any detail. Even if you already have created a couple of MVC projects, you might find the content in this book useful as a refresher. You might have worked in previous versions of Visual Studio and MVC and want a fast no-fluff way to get up to speed with MVC 5. Prerequisites: • C# (you need to be proficient) • MVC 5 (you need some prior experience) • HTML5/CSS3 (you need basic knowledge) • JavaScript/JQuery (you need basic knowledge) In this book you will learn how to build an MVC 5 website using C#, Entity Framework, HTML5, CSS, JavaScript and Ajax. • Create a "real world" code-first database using Entity Framework. • Add and modify models, views and controllers to perform CRUD operations against the database. • Use client-side and server-side validation. • Secure the controllers, actions and view content with authorization and roles. • Implement security with ASP.NET Identity (authentication, authorization and roles). • Use JavaScript, JQuery and Ajax to build a great end-user interface with asynchronous server calls. • Style the user interfaces using CSS3 and Bootstrap. • Create a responsive website. • Implement product subscription scenarios with registration codes. • Create an alternate way to login to the application. • Implement password reset functionality. • Register users with the site. • Manage users and their subscriptions. Technologies, frameworks and languages: • C# (you need to be proficient) • HTML5/CSS3 (you need basic knowledge) • JavaScript/JQuery (you need basic knowledge) • MVC 5 (you will create/modify models, views and controllers) • Razor syntax (to include server-side code in views) • Bootstrap (used for styling and to create a responsive design) • Ajax (used for asynchronous server calls) • LINQ (to query the database) • Extension methods (to clean up your C# code and enable re-use) • HTML Helper methods (to clean up your HTML and enable re-use) • Use settings from the web.config file * This book does not cover ASP.NET Core 1.0 I hope you love the book!

So far I'm up to page 71, and all the code is working, I'm learning, now this is the way it's supposed to be. I'll write more after I've been through several more chapters but it's looking good so far. Review: Great book, NOT for newbies ... - This is a great book for current software, more specifically, web developers. As the book suggests, this book is NOT for people that have no web development experience; especially .NET experience, it is really for developers that have experience with Microsoft technologies such as ASP.NET, C#, WinForms and WebForms. I recommend this boo for developers that have a minimum of 2-3 years experience in C# and other Microsoft technologies that want to get into MVC; it truly is a different paradigm.
