This book provides all the tools you need to develop ultra-modern multiple-page applications (MPAs) using ASP.NET Core Razor Pages, Angular elements, WebPack, RxJS, and mini-SPAs (Single-Page Applications). It will be useful for web programmers, business developers, and students of all skill levels who are interested in web-application developments.This book teaches you how to build a modern web site/application using a hybrid approach – the simplest being host one or more mini-SPAs within a larger multiple-page web application. It shows how to split a web application into functional parts, and convert each functional part into its own SPA. These mini-SPAs together form a complete multiple-page application. For each mini SPA, we use a simple JavaScript routing system to organize the states of the application and switch between different views by watching changes on the URL.The technical stack for backend consists of operating system, web server, database, and programming logic. This book chooses ASP.NET Core Razor Pages and SQL Server as the backend framework. A Razor page consists of a Razor view and a code behind file. Each Razor page is self-contained with its own view and code organized together, resulting in a simpler app, which makes coding page-focused scenarios easier and more productive. The front-end components enable the user's interaction with the web application. In this book, we choose TypeScript, npm, WebPack, RxJS, and Angular as our front-end technical stack. TypeScript is a modern JavaScript development language that provides optional static type checking, classes, and interfaces. It also offers advanced Intellisense, auto-completion, navigation, and refactoring, which makes code easier to read and understand. WebPack is a bundler and it comes in handy when you need to pack multiple assets together into a dependency graph. There is a rising tendency to use WebPack because it can fulfil nearly all tasks that you would perform through a task runner. RxJS is a library for reactive programming using observables, which make it easier to compose asynchronous or callback-based code. This book will explain how to use all of these technologies together to create a modern web application.Angular is a popular front-end JavaScript framework. Even though it is used for SPA development, we can still take advantage of this framework in building modern multiple-page web applications, i.e., we can use Angular in a non-SPA way via Angular elements. Angular elements are Angular components packaged as custom elements, a web standard for defining new HTML elements in a framework-agnostic way. This book shows how to embed Angular elements into our modern MPA project without having to migrate an entire application to Angular.This book also includes the other selected topics, including how to use Microsoft ML.NET to solve machine learning problems, such as classification, regression, and clustering; how to create various charts and graphics using ECharts; how to use SignalR to add real-time features to your web apps; how to use dependency injection, and how to create custom tag helpers and Razor Class Libraries in Razor Pages.

Welcome to "Practical PayPal Integration in ASP.NET Core". This book will provide useful resources on PayPal Checkout and Subscriptions APIs and SDKs, as well as their applications in ASP.NET Core projects. I hope that this book will be useful for .NET programmers, software developers, and students of all skill levels, who are interested in integrating the PayPal REST APIs into their ASP.NET applications. You may often get confused with PayPal because there are so many frameworks and options to do the same thing. In fact, there are over 50 PayPal services, APIs, and SDKs out there – you just do not know which one is suitable for your applications. In this book, I will choose the latest PayPal products, services, APIs, and SDKs, and integrate them into your ASP.NET Core applications. Here are PayPal technologies that I plan to use: •PayPal Smart Payment Buttons – These new buttons, introduced in June 2018, provide a simplified and secure check out experience. They intelligently present the most relevant payment types to your shoppers automatically. •PayPal JavaScript SDK – This SDK integrates Smart Payment Buttons into your web site and renders them to a container DOM element. •PayPal Checkout .NET SDK – To simplify integrations, PayPal provides a .NET SDK for their Version 2 REST Payment API. Using the SDK over a direct integration allows the SDK to handle authentication on the server side for you. •PayPal Subscriptions API – I will implement a Subscriptions .NET SDK based on PayPal Version 1 Subscriptions REST API. This SDK allows you to easily integrate PayPal Subscriptions into .NET applications. In the first part of this book, I will explain how to use the PayPal Checkout .NET SDK to get start with the PayPal Version 2 Payments and Orders REST APIs. I will use various examples to demonstrate the procedures to complete a PayPal checkout transaction, including how to set up the development environment, how to integrate and render Smart Payment Buttons, how to create and manage orders, and how to capture and verify the transaction. In the second part of this book, I will switch to PayPal Subscriptions API. This API has not been ported to Version 2 yet, so we have to use Version 1 API for subscription. To make matters even worse, PayPal has never released a stable Subscriptions .NET SDK, which makes it difficult for .NET developers to integrate PayPal Subscriptions API into .NET and .NET Core applications. Therefore, I decide to implement a simple PayPal Subscriptions .NET SDK, which simply exposes various static methods that can be used to integrate PayPal Subscriptions API into .NET applications. I will use several examples to illustrate how to use this SDK to complete subscription transactions.

Building Single Page App using ASP.NET Core and Angular is not at all meant for freshers or for those who just started programming. This Book covers tons of client-server side technologies. For exampleitusesASP.NETCore, Entity FrameworkCore, WebAPI, Repository Pattern, UnitofWork Pattern, Angular, Responsive design principles, HTML 5, Solid Principles, Design Patterns, etc. to name a few. Now to illustrate each and every concept right from the scratch is fairly impossible as it kills the purpose of writing this book. This book is for my readers who regularly ask me to write something combining all these principles. There are tons of developers and professionals around the world who know these concepts in bits and pieces but don't know how to connect the dots to build as an application. This book is entirely written around industry & coding standard, design principles. Hence, if you are fresher or just started your job, I would recommend to understand basics first and then refer this book. Otherwise, this will appear overwhelming at the beginning. From the second chapter, you will find questions section at the end of every chapter. If you are following this book precisely, you should be able to answer these questions on your own. These are project specific questions which are generally asked in any technical interviews. CONTENTS Chapter 1: Getting Started Chapter 2: Creating Solution From The Blank Slate Chapter 3: Creating Data Context Chapter 4: Implementing Web API Chapter 5: Getting Started with Angular Chapter 6: Deeper into Angular Chapter 7: Adding More Features Using Angular Chapter 8: Adding More Features to the App Chapter 9: Authentication & Authorisation Chapter 10: Introduction to Azure and CosmosDb
