What you'll learn

With the new-found popularity of single-page applications, smartphone applications, and multi-device experiences, web services are becoming increasingly important in the infrastructure of the web and applications. This course will present a few different ways that web services may be created within the .NET framework, ranging from ASMX web services all the way to MVC4 Web API. We will also look at a handful of options available to connect to those web services from a client application. Both Microsoft.NET framework as well as open source options will be explored.
