ASP.NET Core is built on routing. Minimal APIs, Web APIs, Razor Pages, and Blazor all use routes to customize how HTTP requests map to your code. In .NET 8 we’re investing in a suite of new features to make routing easier to learn and use. These include:

✅Route syntax highlighting

✅Autocomplete of parameter and route names

✅Autocomplete of route constraints

✅Route analyzers and fixers

✅Support for Minimal APIs, Web APIs, and Blazor

Join us as James Newton-King overviews these new features and answers your questions, live!
