Getting Started

  1. Clone the repository.
  2. Navigate to the MinimalAPI directory.
  3. Run the project using dotnet run.
  4. Access the API endpoints using a tool like Postman or cURL.

Example Endpoint

  • GET /api/hello: Returns a simple greeting message.

LiteDB Usage

  • The project uses LiteDB for data storage. Check the root directory for the database file (todoApi.db).

Razor Pages Project

The Razor Pages project provides a web application framework built on top of ASP.NET Core, allowing for the creation of dynamic web pages with minimal overhead.

Features

  • Razor Syntax: Utilizes Razor syntax for creating dynamic web pages.
  • Model-View-Controller (MVC): Implements the MVC pattern for structuring the application.
  • Routing: Defines routes to handle incoming requests and render appropriate pages.
  • Forms Handling: Illustrates form submission and data validation.

Getting Started
