Learn how to develop your own .NET applications that use Kontent.ai APIs.

Get started

If you are new to the .NET world, go through these tutorials. They should get you up to speed before you dig into the sample apps.

Use SDKs for APIs

We highly recommend using SDKs to make your app development easier.

The Management SDK supports both Management API and Subscription API.

Strongly-typed models

Both the Delivery and Management SDK support strongly-typed (POCO

) models based on the content types in your Kontent.ai project.

By using strongly-typed models, you get:

Type safety during compile-time
Convenient usage in code – @Article.ArticleTitle vs. @Article.GetString("article_title")
Support for type-dependent features such as display templates in MVC

ASP.NET Core extensions

If you're developing an ASP.NET Core web app, the ASP.NET Core extensions package will give you helper classes for easier development. For example, you can use img-asset tag helper for more convenient work with responsive images via Image transformation API, and a webhook validator to verify your webhooks.
