Intro to ASP.NET Core Razor Pages - From Start to Published

[@brennanbugbee]

This tutorial is better than the official documentation from Microsoft

[@IAmTimCorey]

Thank you!

[@walterliu1202]

Exactly, much better than the offical one

[@Usermage_]

After completing what is written on the official Microsoft tutorial, you get a site with great functionality. The Microsoft tutorial initially tries to discipline the developer to use intelligently object-oriented programming, interfaces, Linq, EF, lambda expressions. These technologies are actively used in medium and large projects. If you master them, you can program more efficiently. If you try to understand the code from the tutorial and write explanatory comments, you will greatly increase your understanding of not only ASP.net Razor, but also the previously listed technologies. Therefore, I disagree with you that the Microsoft tutorial is worse than the video from Tim. It is more capacious and informative, but Tim's video is more suitable for understanding the overall logic of Asp.net Razor, but for a deeper study, I recommend following this tutorial: docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/data/ef-rp/intro?view=aspnetcore-3.1&tabs=visual-studio Of course, you will spend more time and in some places it can be difficult to understand what is happening, but it's worth it.

[@heriyantoyohanes54]

Absolutely

[@silentlessons4221]

thanks Brennan i hv been trying to go thru the microsoft tutorial and many things seem not to be working etc. at least u hv motivate dme to go through this tutorial. will start tomorrow.

[@byoungmn]

I've been doing this as a hobby for 20 years and I have to say that this is EXACTLY what these youngsters need to be watching. Good work Tim! Like I said on the sub page Awesome content!

[@IAmTimCorey]

Thanks!

[@Tazza19931]

Watching Tim code is almost therapeutic. As someone who wants a career in software development (C#), this channel is a gold mine of invaluable, clearly expressed information. Brilliant.

[@IAmTimCorey]

I appreciate the kind words.

[@lewisreid9940]

I've had 4 hours of lectures and 8 hours of laboratories on this at uni and this short tutorial has already taught me far in an understandable manner! Thank you so much

[@IAmTimCorey]

Glad it helped!

After checking the documentation and trying to check up some written tutorials through google, I found this video, which is way more clear and concise than anything else out there. Direct to the point, well structured, and explains the WHY behind each line of code instead of "Just copy and paste this here and magic happens". Thank you.

[@IAmTimCorey]

Thank you. My goal is education so I attempt to do exactly what you noted. You would be surprised how many folks send me note like "Just show the code, stop with all the words!" You are my target viewer. Thank for sharing.

[@sungiljon8499]

It is my rare encounter with such an excellent tutorial. I just fell in love with it.

[@IAmTimCorey]

I am glad you found it so valuable.

Hello IAmTimCorey. I have watched dozens of videos on web development. This is the first time I understood what was being taught. Too easy. My cat was looking over my shoulder, now he is building websites. Thanks !!

[@IAmTimCorey]

You and the cat are very welcome!

[@PatrickHoodDaniel]

This really should be the top video for learning ASP.NET Core! The other top videos show the same procedure of: new project/establish a database/access data. This gets into the fundamentals. I am getting so much out of this video. Thank you so much!

[@IAmTimCorey]

I am glad it was so helpful.

[@niy444]

Thank you for this video! Very well explained and easy to understand. Here i'm just updating how long im in this video, to help myself see how far i am: Day 1: 33:25 Day 2: 53:31

[@IAmTimCorey]

You are welcome.

[@wiko211]

Not gonna lie it took me a lot of searching to get to this tutorial and it s great for everyone who doesn t have a clue about Razor pages and is stuck in some videos from 5y ago, this is the one you should watch

[@IAmTimCorey]

Glad I could help!

[@subhashbhardwaj4787]

I found this video immensely useful. I love that he goes into 'why's and takes detour as needed to ensure that background is understood. I highly recommend it.

[@IAmTimCorey]

Glad it was helpful!

[@dwmbama68]

Hands down the best videos I've found! You should write a book. I would definitely buy it.

[@IAmTimCorey]

I'm glad it was so valuable.

[@chickazama]

I started programming about 7 months ago and settled on C#, and ASP.NET Core is something I've been trying to get my head around for a while. Normally, Microsoft have great tutorials and docs but on there while you could follow along and build a website, I didn't really get why things worked the way they did, having only really built console apps up until now. I stumbled across this video and now a lot of things have clicked and I feel like I'm becoming more productive again! Thanks - Subscribed!

[@IAmTimCorey]

Excellent! I am glad it was helpful.

[@henryporter4081]

I'm subbing because Tim has a nice-sounding voice, takes his time and somehow makes me feel at ease. I like that he is doing something simple here and explains it to me in very simple terms that I can understand easily. Good video.

[@IAmTimCorey]

Thank you!

[@teachbrockcode4388]

Tim, as a programmer I have learned from your videos. Your videos are so helpful they have inspired me to start my own how to videos. I started a Razor Pages project at work last year and found little to no resources available. I hope I can make programming easier to learn for others like you helped me. Thanks, Brock

[@IAmTimCorey]

I am glad to have inspired you.

[@colin-campbell]

Good Lord, thank you for pointing out that "Sku and size" pricing issue on Azure. I've been ripping my hair out because I couldn't figure out how to get the supposedly "free" service from Microsoft. Thanks again!

[@IAmTimCorey]

I am glad it was helpful. Yep, you need to look carefully or you will miss it. There are so many tabs, links, and other things to be aware of that it is easy to miss.

Hi Tim. This is the first video I watch of you and I can tell you it is one of the best ones I've seen on any subject. I am working out of a Mac M1 so things are a little different. But the way you explain things, and not only the hows but the whys takes the learning experience to a whole different level. Keep up the good work

This may be a super strange ask. But the way you explain things would be great in a book! I sometimes like reading material over videos. That being said, I have watched a LOT of tutorials and you are amazing. I may buy your course.

[@IAmTimCorey]

Excellent!

[@BelchamberUs]

Thank you for another excellent video Mr. Corey! I used to LOVE Bootstrap, used it for years, until CSS Grid came along and showed me how clunky and restrictive having to add all of those extra classes and nested containers can be. Separating design, layout AND HTML structure from the backend code and business logic without concern of even the display order of items is an evolutionary quantum leap and it will be very interesting to see how Grid matures and becomes more widely adapted in web and general software development.

[@IAmTimCorey]

That is a nice tool, although it only covers a small portion of what Bootstrap covers, so I don't see it replacing Bootstrap at any point. Bootstrap may adopt some of the ideas, though.

This time I am trying to learn as much as I can before I launch into the rebuild. 53 years old and still learning!

[@kevin179887]

Hey Tim, I really like your show. You seem like you are open to feedback and I really think your great show could be better if you stay on topic. This video is a perfect example..You said you wanted to talk about Razor pages, but you instead talked about Bootstrap, Kestrel, and (OK, I have only made it 15 mins in). These are great additional topics for other videos. Please save them for that.

[@IAmTimCorey]

I try to explain that at the beginning - I am on topic. Trying to learn one specific item in a vacuum is not a good way to learn. It does not prepare you for the real world. You need to know how it fits into the overall ecosystem. Razor pages use Bootstrap. Not discussing Bootstrap at all, how it is configured, how to upgrade it (and why not to), etc. would mean that you would have a gap in your knowledge when you tried to put your understanding of Razor pages into use. The same with Kestrel. Knowing why it is there and how to use it will make you better at understanding Razor pages. This channel is all about the real world. There are tons of sites out there that will give you the five minute video on a topic. That's not what I do.

Great Video, you can get up fast with your methodology. I got a chuckle when you talked about Web Forms. You are right about the comparison. I made a living and a company off of them. Still support plenty, which is reason I am now getting up to speed on Razor. I had so much work in web forms. Oh and they did have web forms in asp.net 1.0 that was initial release, but C# was a new programming language and most developers started off with VB.net because they migrated from VB6

[@IAmTimCorey]

I didn't start off with Web Forms because I was a desktop guy but I did move from VB6 to VB.NET initially.

[@charlesbaldo]

IAmTimCorey yeah I was a VB6 and went to classic ASP with VB scripting. Seems so long ago now, but so advanced at the time I did some Training too, really appreciate your teaching methodology, you say what you are going to do, do it with live meaningful examples then follow up on what you did, and you answer questions and discuss. Thanks

[@IAmTimCorey]

Awesome and nope, you don't need to know ASP.NET MVC before learning the .NET Core equivalent. However, if you do learn it in that order, you won't lose out in any way. Knowing the original is very close to knowing the .NET Core and it will also help you in the "real world", where .NET Framework is still the majority.

[@techsamurai11]

It's amazing how similar Razor is to MVC and how similar they are to ASP and Webforms. MVC and Razor are glorified ASP implementations and perhaps anachronistic which explains their appeal. Webforms is more code driven and you can certainly implement MVC in webforms and may end up with a more OOP result and less convention-based in Webforms. I'm curious to see how Blazor has improved on Webforms.
