Join me in learning how I built an ASP.NET Core web api and an accompanying .NET MAUI application to aid in the running of my wife's baking business.

We will cover how .NET provides so much out of the box, that combined with some fantastic open source libraries it really is a dream to build things.

We will look over the key components that were used to build both the server and client side applications. We will get our hands dirty in the code and get to grips with those previously mentioned key components. Observe how it can be published up to the cloud seamlessly and discuss the best options for when it comes to hosting. Finally let's sit back and enjoy some samples of cake while we have Q&A.
