In this course, Improving .NET Core 2 MVC Apps Using Extension Points, you'll learn how to adapt the framework to your project requirements, rather than limiting your vision to work within its default constraints. First, you'll learn how to extend or build custom versions of components like Tag Helpers, View Components, Filters, and more.

Finally, you'll discover how to modify the internal behaviors of MVC by customizing Action Method Selection, the Application Model, and the Middleware pipeline. By the end of this course, you’ll know how to extend or adapt MVC to the needs of your project, and take your skills to the next level.
