I'm the guy trying to pick this up where my only other experience has been MS Access (and Excel) VBA.

In another post, a highly up-voted comment said that the only thing you need is new Web Apps. There seems to be many, many, many approaches to ASP dot NET - is that the consensus on the best approach? My intention is to build SQL databases for Azure and build applications based on those databases.

​

Am I wasting my time by trying to learn ASP.NET Core 2.1 and C# at the same time? Should I just go ahead and try making stuff in ASP.NET to figure it out? Or should I focus only on C# for awhile?

​

Although I have been reading and watching many videos, I am not so sure that I "get it." I think I understand the following, please correct any misunderstandings:

​

The view can be built in HTML or javascript via other systems.

The controller does calculations and routes data through the Model and calls views. It's like a middleman between the model and the view

The Model holds all the data and/or the data logic.

​

Does anyone have any recommendations for approach to learning or resources? I have been going through many different Youtube videos. I bought a book, ASP.NET Core MVC 2.0. They have helped. I've also been going through Learn C# for Beginners with Mosh.
