ORM, N-Tier Architecture, Multi Layered Applications

🌟 Course Title: Mastering ORM, N-Tier Architecture, and Multi-Layered Applications

Headline: Unlock the Secrets of Business, Data, Service, and Presentation Layers with Expert C# Techniques!

Course Description:

Welcome to the pinnacle of your programming journey where you'll transform theory into practice by building a robust multi-tier application. This course is designed for students who have previously mastered the fundamentals of object-oriented programming and understand the CRUD operations essential for database management. 🛠️

What You'll Learn:

• Comprehensive Multi-Layered Application Development: Dive into the world of Business, Data, Service, and Presentation layers, each playing a pivotal role in your application's functionality.

• Flexible Data Management with ORM: Discover the power of Entity Framework (Core) as your Object-Relational Mapper (ORM) of choice, learning both Code First and Database First approaches to handle data efficiently.

• Advanced Async-Await Techniques: Master asynchronous programming patterns to improve the performance and responsiveness of your applications.

• MVC Pattern Exploration: Build scalable and maintainable web applications using the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern, and extend this knowledge to create Windows Forms and WPF applications.

• Unit Testing Mastery: Learn to write unit tests to ensure your code is reliable, maintainable, and ready for production.

Course Highlights:

• Code First & Database First Approaches: Understand the pros and cons of starting with your database schema or coding it first.

• Data Annotations & Fluent API: Utilize these tools to define mapping between your entities and the database, ensuring optimization and clarity in your application's data handling.

• Presentation Layer Flexibility: From a simple console application to complex Windows Forms, WPF, and MVC applications, learn how to build a user interface on top of a solid foundation.

• Asynchronous Implementation: Transition from synchronous to asynchronous data operations, making your applications more efficient and capable of handling large datasets with ease.

Why Take This Course?

• Foundation for Future Learning: Although some technologies may become outdated, the principles of components, delegates, events, and design patterns are timeless. They form the backbone of modern software development.

• Adherence to Best Practices: Learn to apply SOLID principles, object-oriented programming concepts, and good programming practices to ensure your applications are well-structured and maintainable.

• Preparation for Real-World Applications: This course prepares you for the complexities of real-world software development, including authorization, authentication, email confirmations, payment processing, and data filtering.

Prerequisites:

Before diving into this advanced course, ensure you have a solid understanding of object-oriented principles, CRUD operations, and basic programming concepts in C#. This course builds upon the knowledge gained from the previous five courses in the series.
