GOT QUESTIONS?

Frequently Asked Questions

• Who is this course for?

  This course is for anyone who wants to learn how to build production-ready REST APIs using the latest ASP.NET Core features and best practices.

  You'll learn how to build APIs that are not just functional, but also maintainable, testable, and scalable. We'll even integrate a client app and deploy the API to production.

• What will I learn in this course?

  You'll learn the core principles of REST APIs and how to apply them in practice. These are the same core principles I've used to build many large-scale systems in the past 8 years.

  • REST Fundamentals
  • REST Best Practices
  • HATEOAS (in-depth)
  • Authentication
  • Authorization
  • Testing
  • Deployment
  • CI/CD

  All the course contents are up to date with .NET 9.

• How long is the course?

  The course is 14 hours and 21 minutes long and is a video course. It has a lot of value packed inside, and I designed it to be easy to follow.

• Why is this course different from other REST API courses?

  Unlike other courses that only scratch the surface, this course dives deep into real-world REST API development. You'll learn how to build APIs that are not just functional, but also maintainable, testable, and scalable. We'll also integrate a client app and deploy the API to production.

  The bonus section contains case studies of real-world APIs from some of the most successful companies in the world. You'll see how they were designed and built, and how they were used to power some of the most popular products in the world. You'll also see how they compare to the API we'll build in the course.

• What does Community Access mean?

  If you purchase the PRA + Community Access plan, you will gain access to the Community section. If you don't want to go through the course alone, it's a great way to enhance your learning experience. The Community is where like-minded engineers like yourself can get together and collaborate. If you get stuck at any point, this is where you will find help. Of course, I'll also be there to answer any questions.

• Got it. This must be expensive, right?

  No. It's $197 on the basic plan.

  And if you want to have Community access with bonus content, then it's $347.

• Do I get lifetime access?

  Absolutely, YES! You can access the course forever, including any future updates, with no extra payment.

• What are the prerequisites for taking this course?

  You should have at least 1 year of experience with ASP.NET Core and (preferably) Entity Framework Core. If you are a beginner, this course will help you improve regardless, but it will be slightly harder to follow. You should also be familiar with Docker, as that is what we will use for running external services.

  The course also includes a client app built with React, so you should at least have Node.js installed to be able to run the client app.

• What if I get stuck during the course?

  The course is carefully designed to build knowledge progressively, with each lesson building on the previous ones, so the chances of getting stuck are minimal.

  However, if you do need help, the Community Access edition provides direct access to both me and other course participants. You'll be able to ask questions, share your progress, and get help when needed.
