Migrating: ASP.NET Web Forms and MVC to ASP.NET Core

Migrating web apps from .NET Framework to ASP.NET Core has been painful, until now.

.NET has been around for over two decades, and with the release of .NET Core (later rebranded to .NET), there are many .NET codebases that are now outdated and out of support. Thousands of companies are either stuck on outdated .NET Framework versions or are forced to migrate to the new, cutting-edge ASP.NET Core. There is one problem, though. It can be extremely overwhelming. In this course, Jonathan "J" Tower will teach you everything you need to know to migrate ASP.NET Web Forms and MVC to ASP.NET Core using the knowledge he obtained by helping hundreds of companies migrate from old .NET Framework solutions to the latest ASP.NET Core.
