Real-World Web Development with .NET 9

About this course

This Specialization delivers a structured pathway to building modern, scalable web applications using .NET 9. It begins by establishing a strong foundation in ASP.NET Core MVC, guiding learners through controller-based development, model binding, validation, and data access using EF Core. You will also explore user interface design, localization, authentication, and performance optimization techniques such as caching to ensure responsive and secure applications. The second course advances into service-oriented architecture, focusing on building robust web services using ASP.NET Core Web API, OData, and FastEndpoints. You will learn how to containerize applications, configure environments, and implement testing strategies including UI and integration testing using Playwright. This phase emphasizes deploying and maintaining production-ready services.7 The final course introduces dynamic content management using Umbraco CMS. You will learn to manage, customize, and extend content-driven applications within the .NET ecosystem. Together, these courses provide a cohesive journey from foundational web development to advanced service integration and content management. This Specialization is based on the book, Real-World Web Development with .NET 9, by Mark J. Price.
