Real-World Web Development with .NET 10: Build websites and services using mature and proven ASP.NET Core MVC, Web API, and Umbraco CMS

Mark J. Price

Using .NET for web development is a powerful way to build professional-grade websites and services. But moving from a basic project to a full-scale, production-ready system takes more than just business logic and views—it requires a deep understanding of architecture, maintainability, and scalability. Real-World Web Development with .NET 10 bridges that gap, guiding developers who want to build robust, secure, and maintainable web solutions using battle-tested .NET technologies.

You’ll start by designing structured websites using ASP.NET Core MVC, separating concerns, managing dependencies, and writing clean, testable code. From there, you’ll build RESTful services with Web API and use OData for rich, queryable endpoints. The book walks you through testing strategies and containerizing your applications. The final section introduces Umbraco CMS, showing you how to integrate content management into your site so end users can manage content independently.

By the end of the book, you’ll be ready to build controller-based websites and services that are scalable, secure, and ready for real-world use while mastering Umbraco’s flexible, content-driven solutions—skills that are increasingly in demand across organizations and industries.
Who this book is for: This book is aimed at intermediate .NET developers with a good understanding of C# and .NET fundamentals. It is ideal for developers looking to expand their skills in building professional, controller-based web applications.
