DotNetFlare Roadmap Overview

Welcome to the DotNetFlare project roadmap! This roadmap outlines our plan for covering C# and .NET topics in detail, helping developers of all levels build their skills in structured steps. The milestones below will guide you through foundational C# concepts, data structures, algorithms, advanced .NET features, and essential software practices.

Each milestone represents a key area of the project, and more detailed issues will be created as we progress to break down each milestone into manageable tasks. This single issue serves as a summary and overview of our journey.

Roadmap Milestones

1. Core C# Language Foundations
   Begin with the essentials of C#, including basic syntax and data types, control flow, and OOP principles. This milestone provides the foundational knowledge required for more advanced topics.
   👉 Core C# Language Foundations Milestone

2. C# Intermediate Features
   Learn about collections, LINQ, error handling, async programming, delegates, events, and more. These intermediate concepts are crucial for writing effective, reliable C# code.
   👉 Intermediate C# Concepts Milestone

3. Data Structures
   Start with basic structures like arrays, lists, and stacks, then progress to more complex data structures such as trees and graphs. These concepts are fundamental for writing efficient, performant applications.
   👉 Data Structures Milestone

4. Algorithms
   Explore sorting and searching algorithms, graph algorithms, and introductory dynamic programming. This milestone will enhance your problem-solving skills and deepen your understanding of computer science principles.
   👉 Algorithms Milestone

5. Advanced C# and .NET Features
   Dive into advanced topics like reflection, dependency injection, and the latest C# language features. This milestone prepares you for building complex, scalable applications.
   👉 Advanced C# & .NET Milestone

6. Design Patterns
   Implement popular design patterns (creational, structural, behavioral) to improve code organization and flexibility. This milestone will teach you how to leverage proven patterns in your applications.
   👉 Design Patterns Milestone

7. Database Integrations
   Master database integrations with SQL Server, MongoDB, and Redis. You’ll also learn patterns for data access, optimizing queries, and managing migrations.
   👉 Database Integrations Milestone

8. Architectures and Software Design
   Explore software design with microservices, DDD, CQRS, RESTful APIs, and GraphQL. This milestone introduces principles for structuring applications in modern, maintainable ways.
   👉 Software Architecture Milestone

9. Testing
   Cover unit testing, integration testing, and TDD to ensure code reliability and quality. Testing is essential to building robust, bug-free applications.
   👉 Testing Milestone

10. DevOps
    Learn about CI/CD pipelines, Docker, Kubernetes, and monitoring best practices. This milestone prepares you for deploying and managing production-ready applications.
    👉 DevOps Milestone

11. Sample Applications
    See all these concepts in action with real-world sample apps, such as a CQRS-based to-do app, a real-time chat app, and a microservices application.
    👉 Sample Applications Milestone
