Create a Minimal API with ASP.NET Core & ADO.NET CRUD | .http File Testing

In this video, we explore the modern way of building HTTP-based services using ASP.NET Core Minimal APIs. While traditional development often uses Controller-based APIs, Minimal APIs offer a high-performance, lightweight alternative that is perfect for microservices. What you will learn in this tutorial: How to create your first Minimal API in Visual Studio. Understanding the difference between Controllers and Minimal APIs. Implementing full CRUD operations (Get, Post, Put, Delete) using ADO.NET. Testing your API endpoints directly within Visual Studio using .http files. This bridge allows various applications—from mobile to web frontends—to communicate effectively with your central server.
