Building a Solid React + .NET Core Stack

Most developers treat React and ASP.NET Core as two separate worlds. Frontend does its thing. Backend does its thing. And somewhere in the middle, things break. Here's what actually makes a React + .NET Core stack solid: → A clean API contract (typed DTOs, no random object returns) → Axios interceptors handling auth tokens globally — not per request → Role-based route guards on both the frontend AND the controller level → Centralized error handling so the UI never shows a raw 500 I've built all of this from scratch in a real production app. The mistakes you make when these two don't talk properly are expensive. Follow if you're building full-stack with React + .NET Core. I share what actually works in production — not textbook theory. #dotnet #aspnetcore #reactjs #fullstackdevelopment #webdevelopment #csharp #softwaredevelopment

the axios interceptor pattern is underrated. i'd add signal-based cancellation too — nothing worse than stale responses piling up after a route change.
