In this post, we are going to write about what we consider to be the best practices while developing the .NET Core Web API project. How we can make it better and how to make it more maintainable.

We are going to go through the following sections:

• Startup Class and the Service Configuration
• Project Organization
• Environment Based Settings
• Data Access Layer
• Controllers
• Actions
• Microsoft.AspNetCore.All Meta-Package
• Routing
• Logging
• CryptoHelper
• Content Negotiation
• Using JWT
• Conclusion  

These are the customer-reported issues addressed in this version:

Visual Studio crashes when you open a solution with a test project.
Visual Studio Freezes in Debug with Chrome.
Failure to install HelpViewer.
UI delay while typing R code.
C# 7.0 Regression in Tuples.
Xamarin - Dynamic Type Platform not supported exception.
Xamarin – Dynamic object is not supported.
Xamarin - Xamarin.iOS: ArgumentNullException for instruction parameter in Mono.Linker's MarkException() method.

This release will be shortly followed by R Tools 1.0 for Visual Studio 2017 in early May. RTVS is a free and open source plug-in that turns Visual Studio into a powerful and productive R development environment. 

This bug-fix update resolves the following issues:

ReSharper Build couldn’t build a project if MSBuild was installed as part of Visual Studio 2019 Preview 1 (RSRP-472694).
Visual Studio froze on JavaScript debugging (RSRP-472802).
Inconsistent default state around ‘Inconsistent Naming‘ inspection (RSRP-472812).
A false positive for NUnit TestCase (RSRP-472787).
Unit test coverage highlighting is not shown for projects targeting .NET Framework 3.5 and lower (DCVR-9525).
False “Cannot convert type” error for Promise in TypeScript.
Find Usages did not process bodies of #define macros when looking for textual occurrences (RSCPP-24977).
“Remove unused parameter” quick-fix was broken in C++ (RSCPP-25094).
 

Attempting to install or uninstall results in the error "Cannot create a file when that file already exists.”
For some reason, Visual Studio extensions can get in a weird state where you've uninstalled the VSIX extension, but some files were left behind. To work around this issue:

1. Exit Visual Studio
2. Open the following folder (it might be on a different drive on your machine)
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions\Microsoft Corporation\NuGet Package Manager\<version>\
3. Delete all the files with the .deleteme extensions.
4. Re-open Visual Studio
After following these steps, you should be able to continue.
