Course Objective & Scope

Unlike services that only return JSON APIs, enterprise admin panels, B2B portals and multi-page line-of-business applications require server-side HTML rendering, form workflows and session management. This course focuses on building scalable, maintainable web applications with ASP.NET Core MVC on modern .NET.

It covers endpoint routing, Controller and ViewModel design, modular UI components with Tag Helpers and ViewComponents, model binding and validation, EF Core integration, cookie/OIDC session and role management with ASP.NET Core Identity, caching, and testing with WebApplicationFactory. Participants produce a multi-layered web application template tailored to their organisation.

Who Should Attend?

  • .NET developers building enterprise web portals and back-office applications
  • Teams migrating classic ASP.NET MVC 5 or Web Forms projects to ASP.NET Core MVC
  • Tech leads standardising server-rendered web architecture
  • Prerequisite: C# and basic HTML/CSS knowledge

Key Takeaways

  • Separate Areas, Controllers, ViewModels and service layers cleanly in ASP.NET Core MVC
  • Build reusable UI building blocks with Tag Helpers and ViewComponents
  • Secure form submissions with model binding, validation, CSRF protection and safe file uploads
  • Configure cookie authentication, OpenID Connect and policy-based authorisation
  • Prepare applications for production with output caching, distributed sessions and integration tests
