Hands-on .NET Minimal API for Web Developers - Step 4: Add Data Models

The video tutorial explains the process of creating a data model for a course type in Web API projects. It begins with an introduction to data models, which are classes that correspond to database tables. The tutorial then guides viewers through creating a course class with properties like course ID, name, duration, and type. It addresses handling compilation errors related to nullable features in .NET 6. Finally, the course class is finalized, and the tutorial sets the stage for using this data model in future implementations.

What is the primary purpose of a data model in a Web API project?

• To create user interfaces

• To manage and represent data

• To design web pages

• To handle network requests

Which property in the course data model is used to uniquely identify a course?

• Course Duration

• Course Name

• Course Type

• Course ID

What data type is suggested for the 'duration' property in the course model?

• String

• Integer

• Boolean

• Float

What does the 'course type' property represent in the course model?

• The level of difficulty

• The category of the course

• The number of students enrolled

• The instructor's name

How does .NET 6 handle nullable features in the context of the course model?

• By ignoring null values

• By using a default integer value

• By supporting nullable reference types

• By converting nulls to zeros
