Summary

In this chapter we explored how server-side web technologies have evolved to create dynamic web sites and web applications. The ASP.NET Core platform is Microsoft’s answer to this evolution. It can run on either Microsoft’s flagship IIS server, or as a stand-alone server on a variety of platforms. It brings together a suite of technologies to build web pages and web applications. We took an in-depth look at one of these - Razor pages, and learned how to build our own Razor pages app.
