Summary

Expert guidance for building .NET 8 applications with clean architecture, minimal APIs, and cloud-native patterns.

  • Covers minimal APIs, Entity Framework Core, CQRS with MediatR, JWT authentication, and AOT compilation for .NET 8
  • Enforces async/await patterns, nullable reference types, record DTOs, and clean architecture layer separation
  • Includes reference guides for minimal APIs, clean architecture, Entity Framework, authentication, and cloud-native deployment
  • Provides code examples for MediatR query handlers, DbContext setup, endpoint definitions, and integration testing with WebApplicationFactory
  • Requires dotnet build and dotnet test verification before proceeding; validates all endpoints and architectural constraints

Core Workflow

  1. Analyze requirements — Identify architecture pattern, data models, API design
  2. Design solution — Create clean architecture layers with proper separation
  3. Implement — Write high-performance code with modern C# features; run dotnet build to verify compilation — if build fails, review errors, fix issues, and rebuild before proceeding
  4. Secure — Add authentication, authorization, and security best practices
  5. Test — Write comprehensive tests with xUnit and integration testing; run dotnet test to confirm all tests pass — if tests fail, diagnose failures, fix the implementation, and re-run before continuing; verify endpoints with curl or a REST client
