About A Gentle Introduction To ASP.NET For Beginners

There are a number of

_flavors of ASP.NET_

,

Web Forms

(Web Sites and Web Applications),

Model-View-Controller (MVC)

,

Razor Pages

and the newest one

Blazor

. This course is aimed at anyone who wants to create dynamic websites using all these models , with ASP.NET Web Forms as the starting point. ASP.NET is the Microsoft platform for developing Web Applications. Using ASP.NET you can create e-commerce sites, data driven portals and just about anything else you can find on the internet. Best of all, you don't need to paste together a jumble of HTML and JavaScript code. Instead you can create full scale web apps by leveraging your knowledge of C# coding and a design tool like Visual Studio. In recent years Microsoft has added MVC (Model View Controller) and Razor pages which offer different ways to build dynamic web pages. To some , MVC and Razor pages are cleaner and more suited to the web. To others , it's a whole lot of extra effort with no clear payoff. Either way, it's good to have a strong knowledge of all of these web application programming models before moving onto the most future forward choice

Blazor

. We cover all these models at a beginners level and offer a multitude of practical applications.

Our focus will be working with Visual Studio on WINDOWS machines . All coding examples are fully compatible with the LATEST Visual Studio Editions (As of 2025 Visual Studio Community 2022 and Visual Studio 2026) for WINDOWS

.

Major Course Updates:_Feb 2020_

Generating SQL Queries via AI for use in Blazor Database Applications (Natural Language to SQL)

RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) and Blazor ... A First Look

52+ Hours of Videos

950 + downloadable demos

Sample applications specifically for the current lectures

PLUS hundreds of supplementary demos and exercise solutions

... and more added monthly

Here's how I will help you to succeed:

o Each lecture starts with a list of objectives/speaking notes o Every example covered in the lecture is available for download in the resources section including the objectives/speaking notes o Almost every lecture has a set of Practice problems with full solutions provided o My style of writing and teaching follows the KISS principle :

_Keep It Super Simple_

. I try to stay away from fancy computer terminology and try to teach like am speaking to a brand new user with little to no previous knowledge on the subject matter and I am always available for help replying most times within a day.

And finally please do not judge a book by it's cover don't judge the course by the title or this small description section, if you want to know exactly all the topics covered please go to:
