Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

CodeInText: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "Run dotnet new mvc from the command line. This command will create a new ASP.NET Core MVC project with the same name as the containing folder."

A block of code is set as follows:

public class Person
{
    public class Name {get;set;}
    public Person(){
        Name = "Stephane";
    }
}

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

public class Person
{
    public class Name {get;set;}
    public Person(){
        Name = "Stephane";
    }
}

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

$ apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal 
 
$ killall nautilus && nautilus

Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words that you see onscreen. For example, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in the text like this. Here is an example: "Select the Subscription."
