Integrating Angular with ASP.NET Core RESTful Services (Pluralsight)



Integrating Angular with ASP.NET Core RESTful Services (Pluralsight)
Instructor: Dan Wahlin


Course Description

Learn how to build an Angular and ASP.NET Core application that can perform create, read, update and delete (CRUD) operations. The "Integrating Angular with ASP.NET Core RESTful Services" course starts off by demonstrating how to get started creating the project structure so that you understand the different technologies and how they will interact with each other. It then shows how to build an ASP.NET Core RESTful service to expose GET, POST, PUT and DELETE actions to clients. The RESTful service actions are then consumed by an Angular application using a reusable service class, the built-in Http client and RxJS functionality such as observables. By the end of the course you'll understand the process involved to not only create RESTful services using ASP.NET Core, but also how Angular can be used to consume these services and display and capture data in the user interface.
