Marcotte C. An Atypical ASP.NET Core 6...Patterns Guide 2ed 2022

Textbook in PDF format

We start by exploring basic design patterns, automated testing, the SOLID architectural principles, dependency injection, and other ASP.NET Core mechanisms. Then we explore component-scale patterns oriented toward small chunks of software. Next, we move on to application-scale patterns and techniques, where we explore higher-level patterns and how to structure the application as a whole. The book covers many fundamental Gang of Four (GoF) patterns, such as strategy, singleton, decorator, façade, and composite. The chapters are organized based on scale and topics, allowing you to start small with a strong base and build slowly on top of it, the same way you would build a program.
Many use cases in the book combine more than one design pattern to display alternate usage. It also shows that design patterns are tools to be used, not complex concepts to be feared. Finally, we tackle the client side to connect the dots and make ASP.NET Core a viable full stack alternative.
This book is a journey to learn the reasoning behind the craft. By the end of the book, you will be able to mix and match design patterns and will have learned how to think about architecture. You will learn techniques to help you create the building blocks that you need to solve your unique day-to-day design problems
