A simple yet organized project template for building ASP.NET Core APIs in .NET Core 3.1

Tools and Frameworks Used

• .NET Core 3.1
• ASP.NET Core - For building RESTful APIs
• Dapper - For data access.
• AutoMapper - For mapping entity models to DTOs.
• AutoWrapper - For handling request Exceptions and consistent HTTP response format.
• AutoWrapper.Server - For unwrapping the Result attribute from AutoWrapper's ApiResponse output.
• Swashbuckle.AspNetCore - For securing API documentation.
• FluentValidation.AspNetCore - For Model validations
• Serilog.AspNetCore - For logging capabilities
• IdentityServer4.AccessTokenValidation - For JWT Authentication handling
• Microsoft.Extensions.Http.Polly - For handling HttpClient Resilience and Transient fault-handling
• AspNetCoreRateLimit - For controlling the rate of requests that clients can make to an external API based on IP address or client ID.
• AspNetCore.Diagnostics.HealthChecks - For performing health checks
• Microsoft.AspNetCore.Diagnostics.HealthChecks - For getting the results of Health Checks in the application
• AspNetCore.HealthChecks.UI - For Health Status visualization
• xUnit and Moq - For unit testing.  

This article will show you how to build your Web API with the new ASP.NET Core 3.0 and how to integrate with Auth0 in order to secure them. Following the steps described in this tutorial, you will end up building a simple Web API project

e are very pleased to announce the availability of ASP.NET Core RC2.  This release succeeds the ASP.NET 5 RC1 release and features a number of updates to enhance compatibility with other .NET frameworks and an improved runtime.

Welcome Players! On this site we make games with ASP.NET Core and Blazor and have some fun while learning how to do it ourselves.

This site will be updated with new examples as they are made. In the meantime, check out the existing games below.
