Forget Controllers - Build APIs the SIMPLE Way 🚀
|
Hey Reader, You sit down to write an API, and before you know it, you’re knee-deep in controllers, attributes, and boilerplate. Sound familiar? What if you could skip all that and still build a fully functional API - fast? That’s where Minimal APIs in .NET come in. They’re clean and lightweight and make building APIs feel like a breeze. In my latest video, I show you how to set up endpoints step by step and structure everything neatly so your code stays easy to read and scale. No fluff - just practical, modern API building from scratch. It’s time to say goodbye to cluttered code. Let me show you how it’s done.
Happy coding, and may your holidays be filled with joy and relaxation! 🌟 Take care, Patrick P.S. I’m running a Holiday Sale on the .NET Web Academy right now! 🎄 Get huge discounts on all courses and membership plans for a limited time. Check it out here! 🚀 |

Hey Reader, If you’ve ever built a simple CRUD app with a layered architecture… you might be making things harder than they need to be. In my newest YouTube tutorial, I show you how to build a scalable CRUD app using something super clean and refreshing: 👉 Vertical Slice Architecture in .NET 9 We’ll build a full Video Game API, step-by-step, with: .NET 9 Web API + Entity Framework Core Code-first migrations Controllers (yep, still using those!) The Mediator pattern for cleaner code And, of...
