This repository contains the Skybound Arts API, which Skybound Arts utilizes to store and access crucial website information such as characters, events, players, and tags!

• ASP .Net Core
• Entity Framework
• Microsoft SQL Server

After cloning a local version of this repository, you may create a replica of the database by using the SQL queries found in DBQuery.sql (main directory file). After this has been done and a connection string to the database has been supplied in the appsettings.json, run dotnet build, followed by dotnet run

Currently, this app doesn't include PUT / UPDATE requests. This functionality intends to be added in later on, as only verified users will be able to update video information.
