If you are about to start your next project, which will presumably involve the creation of a backend REST API that will interact with data stored in a database, you should do so by using a modern approach and apply DevOps principles right from the start. If not, make sure you take a look here: GitHub Actions). Now, I could spend hours and hours on the subject, but I guess the best way to show that is with live coding video, so that you I’ll be able to see how to that with your own eyes.

I did a presentation for the BC .Net User Group on this topic not so long ago, in form live coding session where you can see how to create a REST API from scratch using an integrated CI/CD pipeline, with deployment and unit-testing: As any live coding session is a bit long so I created placeholder for all the interesting parts so it’s easy to jump to the section you are interested in.

For this reason, I have also created a repository focused only on the data aspect so that you can start easy understanding that part: As you may have realized, even if you are a back-end or full-stack developer, data is important and thus dealing with it appropriately is definitely a must.
