Patrick God

.NET Developer · YouTuber · Founder of .NET Web Academy

I've been building production .NET applications for over 15 years. My YouTube channel has helped 80,000+ developers level up their .NET skills.

Real-time apps look intimidating until you've actually built one. SignalR has a reputation for being complex, but the patterns are straightforward once you see them in action. This crash course gets you to a working multiplayer game in two hours, with all the SignalR concepts you'll need to build chat apps, dashboards, or collaborative tools after this.

The fastest way to ship your first real-time .NET app.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do I need prior Blazor or SignalR experience?

Some Blazor familiarity helps. SignalR experience is not required. We start with a fresh Blazor WebAssembly project and a brand-new GameHub. If Blazor itself is new to you, the .NET Blazor Jumpstart course is a good warm-up.

What .NET version is the course on?

The course was recorded on .NET 8. The SignalR patterns apply 1:1 to .NET 9 and .NET 10. Lifetime updates are included if anything changes significantly.

Can I use what I learn for chat apps or dashboards?

Absolutely. The SignalR patterns you'll learn (hubs, groups, connection lifecycle, broadcasting) are exactly the same patterns used in real-time chat apps, live dashboards, and collaborative tools. The Tic-Tac-Toe project is just a fun way to learn them.

How long do I have access?

Forever. Once you enroll, you have lifetime access to every lesson and every update.

Are subtitles available?

Yes. English subtitles on every lesson. If you need another language, drop me an email.

Can I get an invoice for my company?

Yes. After your purchase an invoice is sent to your registered email automatically. Make sure to enter your company details (Tax ID, billing address) correctly at checkout.

What's the refund policy?

30-day money-back guarantee. If the course isn't a fit, email me within 30 days of purchase and you get a full refund. No questions asked.

Should I buy this course or the All Access Pass?

If you only want this one course, buy it standalone. If you want this plus every other course in the academy and the live sessions, the monthly All Access Pass pays for itself with just one course. The yearly plan gets you 2 months free and is the best value if you're planning to dig deep.
