Asp.Net Core WebSockets Vs SignalR. Which should you use? (Full Course)

In this video we build 2 separate chat applications, one using Asp.Net Core WebSockets and the other using SignalR, allowing you to compare approaches and decide on which one works best for you. In both cases we build them with C#, .NET Core and JavaScript. You’ll also learn about:

- .NET Core Request Pipeline
- Request Delegates
- Asynchronous Programming in .NET (Async / Await)
- Introduction to Dependency Injection

Simply no one does all this for free, thank you for your work

This is the perfect style of teaching. Provides loads of information, all of which is on-topic, never wanders down any rabbit holes bloating the content but also never glosses over anything crucial to the full understanding of the subject. Clearly has a very high level of experience and willing to take the time to share. Thank you so much!

[giorgilomtadze]

Huge respect, usually I don't comment on any tutorials, but the knowledge of the topic and details is astonishing! Well done lad!

[Bloodthirst]

as someone who is kind of new to .NET Core (coming from a Unity3D background), this is was the best explanation i found of middlewares, just very clear and straight to the point. thnx for the high quality video

I had watched few tutorials about making websocket application in .NET Core but I can't get how it works under until I found your video. Great job!

[diegoforlan]

my english listening level is very bad. but i am listening this man, even if i don't understand what he says :D

[timothyboyd]

Regarding letting you know how I received the long coding block of the WebSocketClient.html: I enjoyed following along and typing code after you. I believe this is the first html plus javascript document I have ever typed. I believe it will prove valuable experience for me. thank you.

[flygonfiasco]

Love that you didn’t just copy an paste code. Thank you for the tutorial!

[babanmalhi]

This video was very very long but it worth watching every second of it. Thank you so much and god bless you! Thank you for taking so many hours from your schedule to teach us all.

[Radwinskee]

This is an AWESOME tutorial. I love the way you explain each line of code after you manually type it in and the way you explain other concept that was needed in this tutorial like the "Async and Await". I think you would be a really effective and fantastic teacher in a classroom. No offence but you are much much better than my professor in college. Thanks again and please continue helping other coders by your tutorials. - Your follower here in Canada.

Thank You Les, your teaching is incredible! Best Regards from Brazil.. Obrigado!

[pablominjares]

Material is succinct and delivers on multiple layers. You're a true developer! Thanks for sharing your journey 😃

[nielsciezkowski]

A long video but worth every minute of my time! Thanks for this enlightening video!!

[pinwanrj]

That's a fantastic job, Jackson. Congrats!!!

[umeshhbhat]

Great content. Loved the DI and the configuration part for the middleware.

[brendaescobar]

Es el video mas educativo que encontré hasta ahora, muchísimas gracias por explicar, cuando estas empezando necesitas explicaciones lo mas profundas y complejas posibles, reitero, te lo super agradezco.

[kimaloshyn]

Incredible material. I really enjoyed every piece of the infomation you presented. Thank you!

[chrismcclure]

How does this not have more views? This is better than pay courses.

[Mortizul]

The intro track makes me think of a slowed down version of "Geography 1" by Front 242. I prefer the sped-up version of you writing code to a cut & paste approach.

Feels like all of the boilerplating that you wrote/have to write for Websockets is already present in SignalR.
That alone seems like a major benefit, at the very least for small projects/prototyping.
