A Minimal API with .NET 6 using C#
A walkthrough to create and run a minimal API with .NET 6 using C#
Description
Writing APIs isn't really new. We are doing it for some time now. But with the new .NET and other updates, we have the .NET 6 minimal API. Creating an API with less code! In this course, I will walk you through the steps you need to take to create a minimal API using C# and .NET 6.
In this course, I am going to teach you the basics of the minimal API with C# and .NET 6. First I'll show you the "old" way in .NET 5, so you have a better understanding of what has changed. It isn’t much, but they are major changes. Then I am going to create the minimal API and expand it with several mappings for the endpoints
Dependency injection is a well-used design pattern, so I will add that to the course as well. I’ll show you how to register and use dependency injection in a single file. The injection of the interfaces is a bit different than we are used to.
The last topic is making the API async, which is a good idea if you want to handle requests more quickly and execute tasks simultaneously.
It is advisable to have some knowledge of C# and the basic idea of APIs. Furthermore, knowledge of dependency injection and async is a must.
What You Will Learn!
- Create a minimal API with .NET 6 and C#
- Add mappings for HTTP request methods
- Add and use dependency injection in the minimal API
- Make a minimal API async
