What you'll learn

Console applications - like those used in video games such as "Quake" or "The Elder Scrolls" - can save a lot of time for developers, allowing you to code and test site functionality in a fraction of the time it would take otherwise. In this course, you'll learn to build a reusable console that can be integrated into new or existing applications. You'll learn how to design a console control, process commands, integrate with a Node or ASP.NET server, and set up help and command history. By the end of this course, you'll have a working console application that you can add to any web application.
