Clean Architecture with ASP.NET Core 10 for Beginners

Do you know a little C# or ASP.NET Core, but feel unsure about how real-world applications should be organized? Many beginners can create a controller, return data from an endpoint, or connect to a database, yet still feel lost when a project grows. Where should business logic go? How do you separate API code from database code? How do professional developers keep applications clean, testable, and maintainable? Clean Architecture with ASP.NET Core 10 for Beginners is a friendly, step-by-step guide that helps you move beyond basic Web API tutorials and start building applications with confidence. This book gently introduces Clean Architecture using practical ASP.NET Core 10 development. You do not need to be an advanced developer or software architect. If you have basic C# knowledge and want to understand how modern backend projects are structured, this book will guide you carefully from the foundation to a complete real-world Web API project. Inside, you will build a practical task management API while learning how to organize your code into clear layers: Domain, Application, Infrastructure, and API. Each chapter explains not only what to write, but why it matters, how the pieces connect, and how the structure helps your project stay easier to read, test, maintain, and extend. You will learn how to: Understand Clean Architecture in simple, beginner-friendly language Structure an ASP.NET Core 10 solution using clear project boundaries Build a clean Domain layer with business rules and entities Create Application layer use cases, commands, queries, DTOs, and result models Use EF Core in the Infrastructure layer without polluting your business logic Build clean ASP.NET Core Web API controllers Add validation, error handling, logging, and consistent API responses Understand where authentication and authorization fit in a layered project Test domain rules, application use cases, API behavior, and database behavior Refactor and prepare your project for real-world maintainability This book is designed to make architecture feel practical, not intimidating. Mistakes are treated as part of the learning process, and each small win helps build your confidence. You will create the solution step by step, wire up each layer carefully, and see how professional project structure makes development less stressful. Instead of overwhelming you with abstract theory, this guide focuses on practical implementation. You will see how Clean Architecture works in a real ASP.NET Core Web API, how C# and EF Core fit into the design, and how to avoid common beginner mistakes such as large controllers, scattered database logic, duplicated rules, and unclear responsibilities. By the end of the book, you will have more than a working Web API. You will understand how to think about software structure, how to place code where it belongs, and how to build backend applications that are easier to grow over time. Whether you are a beginner learning ASP.NET Core, a C# developer ready to improve your project organization, or an early intermediate programmer who wants a clearer path into professional backend development, this book is a supportive companion for your journey. Start building cleaner, more maintainable ASP.NET Core applications today, one clear step at a time.

Critical Computational Relations in Design, Architecture and the Built Environment

This book delves into the power relations between computational practices, technology infrastructures, knowledge, and their reproductions of bias in design, at multiple scales. It provides critical perspectives and insights on how computation intersects with architecture, design, the built environment, and society.

.NET Aspire for Beginners

Building modern .NET applications can feel overwhelming when you are just starting out. Databases, caching, Docker, service communication, logs, traces, metrics, and cloud-native architecture may sound like topics meant only for experienced developers. But they do not have to be confusing. .NET Aspire for Beginners is a friendly, practical, step-by-step guide designed to help you build confidence with modern .NET development one clear lesson at a time. You do not need previous experience with .NET Aspire, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, observability, or distributed applications. If you have basic coding curiosity and a willingness to learn patiently, this book will guide you through the process in a calm and approachable way. Inside, you will build a practical cloud-native ASP.NET Core 10 application using .NET Aspire. Instead of learning disconnected tools in isolation, you will see how each part fits into a real development workflow. You will start with the foundations, set up your development environment, build a Web API, add persistent data with PostgreSQL, improve performance with Redis caching, use Docker-supported resources, connect services, and observe your application with logs, traces, metrics, and health checks. This book will help you: Understand what .NET Aspire is and why it matters for modern .NET development Build a beginner-friendly ASP.NET Core 10 API step by step Add PostgreSQL for real database-backed application data Use Entity Framework Core for practical data access Add Redis caching for faster and smarter responses Understand Docker's role in local cloud-native development Connect services in a distributed application Use the Aspire Dashboard to inspect resources, logs, traces, metrics, and health checks Troubleshoot common Aspire, Docker, PostgreSQL, and Redis issues with more confidence Prepare your application for cleaner structure, maintainability, and real-world growth The goal of this book is not to rush you or bury you under complex theory. Each chapter builds carefully on the last, helping you understand what you are doing, why it matters, and how it connects to real software development. Mistakes are treated as a normal part of learning, not as failure. Every small success, from running your first Aspire solution to seeing your database resource appear in the dashboard, becomes part of your progress. Whether you are a beginner learning backend development, a .NET developer exploring cloud-native applications, or a self-taught programmer ready to move beyond simple projects, this book gives you a supportive path forward. Start your .NET Aspire journey today and learn how to build modern, connected, observable ASP.NET Core applications with confidence, one practical step at a time.

AI-Powered .NET Applications for Beginners

Build AI-powered .NET applications without feeling overwhelmed. Artificial intelligence can sound intimidating, especially when terms like chatbots, RAG, Semantic Kernel, embeddings, prompts, and AI workflows appear all at once. But you do not need to be an AI researcher, data scientist, or advanced software engineer to start building useful AI features with .NET. AI-Powered .NET Applications for Beginners is a friendly, practical, step-by-step guide that shows you how to build intelligent ASP.NET Core 10 applications using C#, Semantic Kernel, retrieval-augmented generation, chatbots, structured AI responses, and real-world AI workflows. This book is written for beginners who want clear explanations, practical examples, and a calm learning path. You will not be rushed through confusing theory or buried under long blocks of unexplained code. Instead, each concept is introduced gently, explained in plain language, and connected to a real application feature you can understand and build. Inside this book, you will learn how to: Understand what makes an application AI-powered Set up an ASP.NET Core 10 project for AI development Connect a .NET application to an AI service Build a simple AI response endpoint Design better prompts for reliable application behavior Create a chatbot with conversation flow Use Semantic Kernel to organize prompts, plugins, and AI logic Build RAG features for document-based question answering Store chat history, document chunks, and application state Handle errors, timeouts, validation, secrets, and API usage safely Test, improve, and prepare an AI-powered .NET app for deployment The book focuses on practical learning, not empty hype. You will build an AI-powered support assistant step by step, starting with a clean ASP.NET Core foundation and gradually adding real AI features.
