Whenever there are important differences, I mention the differences between ASP.NET Core 1.x and 2.x, although I think this will be less important over time.
Overall, it was an exciting task, but not one without obstacles. I must thank the team at Packt Publishing, namely, Siddhi Chavan and Abhishek Sharma for all their patience and support. Also, Alvin Ashcraft, who was the technical reviewer.
Do have a look and share your feedback! It is available from the Packt Publishing site, Amazon and others, either in hardcopy or ebook format. The source code is available at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Mastering-ASP.NET-Core-2.0."
Kudos to R. Peres for pointing this out.
