.NET Core Microservices - Coupon Controller

In this video tutorial, the instructor guides viewers through the process of setting up and modifying a coupon controller in an API project. The tutorial covers creating an empty controller, copying necessary components from an existing cart controller, and implementing logic to handle coupon codes. The video also touches on dependency injection, authentication, and testing the controller within the main project. By the end, viewers will have a functional coupon controller ready for integration.
