y'all i actually did the thing??? graduated with my compsci degree and then 2 months later i got hired as a developer???? how did that happen.
it's been wild tho because while i am comfortable with C#.NET, my job is alllll about ASP.NET and the Microsoft documentation on it hasn't really *explained* anything to me
hopefully i can figure out this sorcery
@terrasalix That's awesome, congrats!
I was diving into ASP.NET Core last year, and I'd be happy to link some of the learning materials I used.
@donna thank you! And please please please you'd be a lifesaver
@terrasalix Andrew Lock's book ASP.NET Core in Action is a really good starting point. The third edition just came out and is available on Anna's Archive.
If they're using Entity Framework Core, which is Microsoft's ORM and pretty widespread in the .NET/ASP.NET ecosystem, I recommend Jon P Smith's book, Entity Framework Core in Action.
You probably covered relational databases already. If not, Jennifer Widom's Stanford course is on YouTube and is good.
The dotnet YouTube page has A LOT of tutorial content.
The official Microsoft docs are poorly organized and can be hard to navigate, but once you know the name of the specific feature you want to learn more about, I have found them to be generally very detailed and useful.
They've also put out a repo called "eShopOnWeb" which is basically a demo application you can clone and poke around in.
@donna thank you so much
