Additionally, we’ll set the stage by setting up your first project and covering the essentials like hot reload and routing.

Database Setup

In this module, we will dive into setting up the database for your application. You'll learn about nullable reference types in .NET 6, how to build the necessary models like the category model, and implement essential data annotations. We’ll also guide you through setting up your database connection and creating a database, ensuring a seamless integration between your application and the database.

CRUD - Razor Pages

In this module, we will explore the CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations within Razor Pages. You will learn how to display, create, edit, and delete categories with smooth user interface integration. We'll cover essential validation techniques (both server-side and client-side), as well as advanced features like TempData and Toastr for effective feedback. Additionally, you'll discover how to scaffold CRUD pages to streamline development.

N-Tier Architecture

In this module, we will explore the implementation of N-Tier architecture, which promotes a clean separation of concerns in application design. You'll learn how to add multiple projects to your solution and organize data and model files. We will also guide you through structuring admin and customer pages, implementing a dropdown in the navbar, and completing a hands-on assignment focused on Food Type functionality.

Repository Pattern

In this module, we will focus on implementing the Repository Pattern, which helps in abstracting and managing data access operations. You will learn how to create and implement the IRepository interface and a specific repository for categories. We will also explore the Unit of Work pattern for handling transactions and demonstrate its use in real-world scenarios. A hands-on assignment will allow you to apply these concepts and review your progress.

Menu Item Management

In this module, we will dive into the creation and management of Menu Items within your application. You'll learn how to build the MenuItem model, create its corresponding table in the database, and integrate it into the UnitOfWork pattern. We'll cover the full CRUD functionality, including rich text editors, DataTables integration, and managing Edit and Delete operations with HTTP handlers and user alerts.

Home Page

In this module, we will focus on the development of the home page and related functionality. You’ll learn how to implement a Get handler to populate the home page with dynamic data and display it effectively. We will also cover adding additional repository functionality, creating a detailed view page, and managing users to provide a personalized experience on your site.

Identity Management

In this module, we will explore identity management, focusing on user authentication and role-based authorization. You’ll learn how to scaffold identity, register the first user, and extend the default identity system to meet your needs. Additionally, we will guide you through assigning roles during user registration and creating users with varying roles to control access across the application.

Shopping Cart

In this module, we will walk through the implementation of a shopping cart system. You’ll learn how to create and manage the shopping cart model, integrate it into the repository, and handle the core cart functionalities like adding items, incrementing quantities, and removing/decrementing items. We’ll also cover order totals, routing for checkout, and provide a comprehensive UI to summarize the cart contents.

Order Submission

In this module, we will focus on the order submission process. You’ll learn how to create the Order Header and Order Details models to structure the order data. We’ll also guide you through building the repository, loading order summary data, applying validations, and adding the order to the database. By the end of this module, you’ll have the full functionality for managing and submitting orders, as well as performing final cleanup to ensure your project is ready for deployment.

Stripe Payments
