This book is for developers who want to learn how to build web applications using ASP.NET Core, developers who want to make a career building web applications using Microsoft technology, and developers who are working in Ruby on Rails or other web frameworks and want to learn how to use ASP.NET Core MVC.

No knowledge of the ASP.NET platform or the .NET platform is required. Even though you do not need to have experience with C#, an understanding of the basic constructs (loops, conditionals, classes, and objects) of any modern programming language would be helpful.
