We will also explore critical concepts like dependency injection and MVC architecture, setting the stage for deeper learning throughout the course.

MVC Basics - CRUD Operation

In this module, we will dive into the basics of the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern. You’ll learn how to implement CRUD operations for a Category model and understand how to validate user input using data annotations. This section also covers how to work with partial views, add custom validation, and use scaffolding to simplify the process of generating CRUD operations.

Razor Pages - CRUD Operation

In this module, we will explore Razor Pages, an alternative to the MVC pattern in ASP.NET Core.

You will learn how to create different projects for each layer and manage dependencies between them. Additionally, we will cover how to handle migration issues when working with Entity Framework.

Repository Pattern

In this module, we will explore the Repository pattern, which promotes a clean separation of concerns by abstracting data access logic. You will learn how to implement the IRepository interface and manage data operations through repositories. We’ll also cover how to integrate Unit of Work to manage business transactions and explore how Areas can help you organize your application.

Product Management
