great video. i like how you fast forward through the coding. It makes explaining things more fluid.

After hours of searching finally find a channel that's not "Monkey see, Monkey do"
You explain is really well and not just doing it for the sake of it.

Only thing is I wish you slow down a bit when you code.

[BobrLovr]

would you be able to redo this in a quick console program without DI? Just easier to learn something without all the overhead.

Hey, thank you for the guide. At 9:20 how did you decide which fields go into the Release Model? Thanks!

At 3:04, why did you take out the this. to insert the underscore? I believe the underscore is for global vars, but I'm just wondering what removing the this does in the constructor. Also, great video and thank you!

Hi, I'm getting this error: IServiceCollection does not contain a defintion for AddControllersWithViews
, and a few others relating to the namespace. What version of .NET MVC were you using?

Hello Pat,

I hope all is well, and wonder if it is possible for you to change this tutorial to a new Blazor Server application?

Best,

Hey Pat i can‘t find the Startup.cs Can u help me ?

[Hollowendz]

Not gonna lie unless you already have experience in web apis, this will not help you, this youtuber goes 100 miles per hour even when explaining, i dont get whats the rush if youre suppose to be teaching, youre calling all sorts of methods without really explaining why.
