A guide to discovering the hidden behaviors of ASP.NET Core that can be customized to optimize your .NET 5 applications
ASP.NET Core is the most powerful web framework by Microsoft. Although it’s full of rich features, sometimes the default configurations can be a bottleneck for high performance and need to be customized to suit the nature and scale of your app. If you’re an intermediate-level .NET developer who wants to extend .NET Core to multiple use cases, it’s important to customize the features so that the framework works for you effectively.
This book covers core features that need to be customized to achieve impressive performance for your ASP.NET Core apps. The customization techniques are updated to work with the latest .NET 5 framework.
As you progress, you’ll learn core concepts relating to optimizing the framework such as configuration, dependency injection, routing, action filters, and more. You’ll understand these concepts and be able to create custom solutions that meet the needs of your use case with ASP.NET Core. Later, you’ll discover expert techniques and best practices for using the framework for your app development needs, from the UI-design level to the hosting level. Finally, you’ll focus on the new endpoint routing in ASP.NET Core to build custom endpoints and add third-party endpoints to your web apps for processing requests faster.
By the end of this book, you’ll be able to customize ASP.NET Core to develop robust optimized apps.
This .NET 5 book is for .NET developers who need to change the default behaviors of the framework to help improve the performance of their applications. You should have basic knowledge of ASP.NET Core and C# before getting started with the book.
