Look inside

Budzykfarm’s new farm management system has existing Blazor pages, but they don’t do anything just yet. That’s where you come in. First, you’ll set up a SQL Server database and establish procedures for entering the data on the UI pages using Entity Framework (EF) Core. Then, you’ll bind input to the pages’ MudBlazor components. When you’re done, managers at Budzykfarm will be able to easily enter worker data and assign duties.

This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.

book and video resources

When you start your liveProject, you get full access to the following books and videos for 90 days.
