Let's build a modern API for your frontend

What does a backend developer need to know for setting up a modern, high quality API on Azure for your frontend apps.

Let's break it down in different parts iteratively incorporate the practices into our API and consuming application.

We will touch upon following elements:
- Azure PaaS vs Serverless.
- Bringing your API to enterprise standards, including: Route prefixes (representing domains), API versioning, OpenApi, Logging, Caching, integrated validation, Active Directory integration and many more.
- Consuming your modern API in a mobile application or SPA site while paying attention to good practices.

During this workshop, we'll use the latest available bits in Azure, .NET 6 APIs. For the frontend consumers, we have samples available in MAUI and Blazor to touch both mobile and web.
