Look inside

Level up your C# skills by evolving an API data retrieval prototype into a robust application. As a developer at Ground Truth Consulting, you'll expand the initial Federal Register API demo into a versatile tool to streamline legislative monitoring. This project lets you flex your C# muscles on real-world APIs while prepping for enterprise development. You’ll refactor with classes, tuples, and records for more maintainable code, cache API responses in memory to optimize performance, and integrate the Congress API to showcase multi-source data aggregation.

This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
