From Zero to Hero: SignalR in .NET

SignalR is a powerful library for ASP.NET Core that enables real-time, bidirectional communication between server and client applications. It abstracts away the complexity of WebSockets, Server-Sent Events, and Long Polling, automatically selecting the best transport method available while providing a simple, consistent API for developers. Real-time features have become essential for modern web applications, from live chat and notifications to collaborative editing and live dashboards. SignalR makes implementing these features in .NET straightforward and production-ready, with built-in support for scaling, security, and multiple client platforms. Companies like Microsoft Teams, Stack Overflow, and countless enterprise applications rely on SignalR to power their real-time features. In this comprehensive 8-hour course, instructor Nick Proud will take you from your first SignalR connection to building enterprise-grade, scalable real-time applications with authentication, streaming, and production deployment strategies.
