ASP.NET Core Getting Started Tutorial

Step 1: Create a New Project

Start by opening Visual Studio or VS Code. Create a new project, select 'ASP.NET Core Console Application'.

You'll see a basic project with a 'src' folder. Navigate to the 'src' folder. You'll find a `Program.cs` file. This is the entry point for your application.

Step 2: Add a Namespace

In the `Program.cs` file, add a namespace like this:

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;

Add a new line after the `using` statement and use the following code:

public class MyStartup : IStartup
                //This class is an implementation of IStartup, it provides startup information to the ASP.NET Core framework.
                //For each request it will handle
                //using Microsoft.AspNetCore.RoutingProviders;
                //public class MyStartup : IStartup {
                //    public override void OnPreStart()
                //    {
                //        Console.WriteLine("Startup Started");
                //    }
                //}



            
                Step 3:  Add an MVC Route
                In the `Program.cs` file, find the `RouteMap` line and modify it to include a route that runs your controller.
                @Route("GET:your-controller-path", EmptyRouteRunner)
                // Your controller logic here.
