This video introduces the minimal hosting models of web APIs in ASP.NET Core. In this video, Safia creates a new ASP.NET Core project template in Visual Studio Code (VS Code) then explores this new app's configuration in the Program.cs file. Program.cs will launch a host that's responsible for starting the application, configuring an underlying HTTP server, and setting up the pipeline for processing requests and responses over HTTP.
