Full-Stack Development with C# Backend and React Frontend on Azure

Explore how to build robust web applications by combining the power of ASP.NET Core with a dynamic React frontend, all hosted and scaled efficiently on Microsoft Azure.

C# (ASP.NET Core Backend)

Leverage ASP.NET Core to build high-performance RESTful APIs. Utilize features like dependency injection, middleware, and asynchronous programming to create a scalable and maintainable backend. Implement secure authentication and authorization using ASP.NET Core Identity or JWT tokens. Develop data models and business logic that power your application.

MS SQL (Database Layer)

Design and manage your relational database using MS SQL Server. Integrate with your C# backend using Entity Framework Core for seamless Object-Relational Mapping (ORM). Implement migrations, manage database schemas, and optimize queries for performance. Consider Azure SQL Database for a fully managed, scalable cloud solution.

Azure (Deployment & Services)

Deploy your ASP.NET Core API to Azure App Service for easy scaling and management. Host your React frontend on Azure Static Web Apps for global distribution and integrated CI/CD. Utilize Azure Key Vault for secure secrets management and Azure Monitor for application performance monitoring and logging.

Angular (Alternative Frontend)

Angular offers a structured framework with TypeScript support that C# developers often find familiar. It provides robust tools for large-scale applications, including a powerful CLI, dependency injection, and RxJS for reactive programming. You could easily swap React for Angular to consume the same C# backend APIs.

React (Frontend Development)

Build interactive user interfaces with React. Use functional components and hooks for state management and side effects. Consume your C# backend APIs using `fetch` or Axios. Implement client-side routing and optimize performance with techniques like code splitting and lazy loading. Utilize state management libraries like Zustand or React Context for complex applications.
