Experiments and Plans

MVP: A working guestbook that allows a user to upload an image, add social media information, and leave a message.

Completed Updates:

• Build a class library and move methods into classes.

Planned Updates

• Implement DAO (Data Access Object) pattern to decouple the data access layer from the user interface.
• Add Unit Testing
• Implement modals for CRUD screens
• Allow image service to modify images after creation
• Implement identity service for DELETE permissions.

Origins

This was my first ASP.NET Core MVC application. I use this to experiment with newer techniques before implementing them in bigger projects.
