When you purchase a .NET Core optimized Cloud Server through alttrixcloudCloud, AWS, or Google Cloud, setting up your .NET application is streamlined with our installer wizard. Below are the steps and options available during the installation process:
Accessing the .NET Core Installer
Follow the steps below once your Cloud Server has provisioned.
- Head to Manage Hosting and Select Add Hosting.
- Create a new hosting package on the newly created cloud server.
- When your new package has been created head to Manage Hosting and select (Options) > Manage
- The .NET Core installer will then show.
Installation Options
The installer provides three distinct setup choices for your .NET Core application:
1. Empty Application
- Use Case: Best for those who are migrating an existing application or who prefer to build their application from scratch.
- What It Does: Creates a minimal setup without any pre-defined code, allowing you to architect your application with complete freedom.
2. .NET Core API
- Use Case: Ideal for starting a new project or for learning purposes, especially if you aim to build RESTful HTTP services.
- What It Does: Sets up a sample Web API application template, which is accessible from various clients such as web browsers or mobile apps.
3. .NET Core MVC
- Use Case: Suitable for developers who want to begin with a web application that employs the Model-View-Controller architecture.
- What It Does: Installs a sample MVC application, which helps in organizing the logic of the application into three interconnected elements: Model, View, and Controller. This separation enhances manageability and scalability.
