This is a simple RESTful Web API for a bookstore built with ASP.NET Core . It allows clients to perform CRUD operations on books and authors. The API uses Entity Framework Core for ORM and connects to a SQL Server database.

• Books Management:

  • Add, update, retrieve, and delete books.
  • Each book has a title, year of publication, and author.

• Authors Management:

  • Add, retrieve, and update authors.
  • Each author has a list of books.

• Swagger Documentation: The API is well-documented using Swagger, providing interactive API documentation for testing the endpoints.
