For this workshop we need a couple of prerequisites. First, we need the .NET SDK 8.0.

Then we need an IDE/editor in order to do some proper C# coding, you can use VSCode or if you already have it on your system, Visual Studio or JetBrains Rider.

Last but not least we will use our GraphQL IDE Nitro.

Note: When installing Visual Studio you only need to install the ASP.NET and web development workload.

In this workshop, you'll learn by building a full-featured GraphQL Server with ASP.NET Core and Hot Chocolate from scratch. We'll start from File/New and build up a full-featured GraphQL server with custom middleware, filters, subscriptions, and Relay support.
