How do I set up a program like this to run server side?

One of the main reasons I'm learning C# is because it can run server-side. How can I set up this program to run for example on my digital ocean cloud server?

I want to run the program so a webpage can send the request to the C# program and send back the Json to the webpage....

I'm guessing it will involve MONO.... Where do I begin?

:point_right: Treehouse also has server-side C# instruction.

You might enjoy the workshop Creating Your First ASP.NET MVC Website and/or the course ASP.NET MVC Basics. Both focus on C# development for the server side.

Mono is not used in either of these, they use Visual Studio instead.

I did the course version of ASP before the this course..... I think Ill actually have to go through it again They way I understood it is It mostly focuses on the MVC website organization, not so much server side code.

Is there a way to make this program at least where its running as a console application on the server? For whatever reason I guess it will put some wind in the sails if I see this running on the server.
