Which of these two books would you recommend to dive deep into?
Hi,
I know other languages like Java, Scala, and some web dev like React/Next.js/TypeScript.
I am now in the pursuit of learning C#.
I prefer to read books as its much easier and faster for me than a computer screen, also I can more readily take notes inside the book (yeah I know some hate it).
I found these two modern and updated books:
- Essential C# 12.0 by Mark Michaelis: https://www.amazon.com/Essential-12-0-Addison-Wesley-Microsoft-Technology/dp/0138219516
It doesn't have ratings yet because its so new, but the old one in its series got 4.7 rating score from 15 ratings: https://www.amazon.com/Essential-C-8-0-Mark-Michaelis-ebook/dp/B08Q84TH84
- C# 12 and .NET 8 – Modern Cross-Platform Development Fundamentals: Start building websites and services with ASP.NET Core 8, Blazor, and EF Core 8 by Mark J. Price: https://www.amazon.com/12-NET-Cross-Platform-Development-Fundamentals/dp/1837635870
As you see it also has 4.7 rating score from 51 ratings, but its been out 1 month more.

I have read the C# 12 and ,net 8 modern By mark j price.
well it helps with the basics and some fundamentals..
its a good plus he his very active in the packt discord channel he would answer your questions.
everything about the book is good.
but i wish there were more projects
also he did a scaffolding of a database that was already created
i would have preffered we created the whole project from scratch and then just learn about scaffolding breifly
overall its a good book.
you will learn alot..
also if you looking for a learning partner where we can build projects.. am in
that helps to learn alot.
and we can share knowledge.. i am also familiar with react and ts.
Ok sounds great, I will try to get the basics and then we can do projects :)
