.NET is the fundamental programming platform for the Microsoft developer ecosystem. Each release of .NET includes hundreds of standard code libraries and APIs. This course looks at the entire realm of .NET APIs. Join instructor Walt Ritscher as he examines the big picture, which means exploring the libraries in breadth, not in depth. Walt takes you through the data libraries, from LINQ to Entity Framework. Other sections examine threading and async, and topics on the file system and network protocols.
