Generate ASP Web API help documentation at design time - asp.net

Hi I came across this link https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/web-api/overview/getting-started-with-aspnet-web-api/creating-api-help-pages which will give us a way to browse web api documentation. But, I need it to be available without running the server. Does anyone here have an idea on how to make the API documentation generated during run time be available at design time? Thanks.

How to display private Google Calendar events on my localhost start page without a webserver?

I'm practicing HTML/CSS/JS using localhost as a browser start page and I'd like to display the next 24 hours of my events from my Google Calendar. However, it seems so far that a webserver (I used Python) needs to be running first. Is there a simple way to just read these events via JavaScript? Also, my calendar is not public. I've checked all the documentation I could find and haven't found any solution.
I'm still learning, so I appreciate any help/suggestions you can give. Thanks!
If you already have a python web server running for your application, you just have to authorize it to grab data on your behalf.
I recommend you go thru the Python Quickstart tutorial to learn how to authenticate and talk with the Google APIs.
Once you have that setup and running, you can then integrate those methods to your webserver logic.
This will depend on which library or framework you are using for your application.
Hope this helps!

How to develop a web browser using c# .net using installed.net libraries and without using the web browser control?

I have searched the internet for 2 days having found no answer to the below requirement. What i found most were GeckoFX and CefSharp which are external packages and not installed libraries. How can this be done?
I have been asked to do the following:
Use a suitable library function out of the set of libraries installed with the .NET platform. You must not use the C# WebBrowser class but perform the required HTTP-level communication directly from within your code. The code must clearly identify the HTTP-level client-server communication and must explicitly manage Home page, Favourite, History Lists and Tabs.
Optionally, you may add functionality to render a web page, but there must be an option to disable this functionality and to show only the raw HTML that has been retrieved.
Thanks
What have you attempted so far and what problem are you encountering?
Maybe read this first :)
Currently it sounds like you have been given an interview or homework task that you dont know how to solve. If so, then you should have some idea on where to start or you are in the wrong course or job interview. If you want help, then try to solve the question yourself and ask for help when you are stuck. Tell us what you have tried, show the code you currently have and let us know where you are stuck or what doesnt work as expected.
Where are you stuck? Fetching the webpage? Building the user interface?

Steam Web API Integration with ASP.NET site

I've been designing a website in ASP.NET, and I have been researching many ways to integrate the Steam Web API into my site. Whenever I try a method, it seems promising, but there is always a problem that I can't seem to overcome. Most of the methods online are using PHP, but I have not found a way to integrate this into my ASP.NET site either. I want users to be able to sign in through Steam, and to display inventories of certain users on the page. Any way of retrieving this data would be a huge step forward at this point.
The website is currently located at Kritz.TF. It's in a VERY early stage, I have been limited to what I can do before I do get this thing sorted out.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

SPA from empty project - integrate Azure AD Active directory

I have been creating a SPA from an empty ASP.net Project and i want to integrate Azure AD Authentication to the project.
Anyone know of any good step by step guide to do this or something similar?
I was reading a bit on this post by Microsoft, but I don't think I understood it quite well.
Error During Authentication Detection
My best suggestion here is to simply follow one of the open source solutions for single page applications which you can find on our GitHub here:
https://github.com/Azure-Samples?q=singlepage
Along with the full source code for all the working solutions, we also provide instructions on registering your app, configuring it, and running the sample.
Another thing that is brand new, which you might find helpful is our Application Quick Start which is available here:
https://identity.microsoft.com/Docs/Web
This does not exactly tackle the intricacies of a Single Page Application, but should be a really quick way for you to just copy and paste code which enables your app to use Azure Active Directory Sign-On.
Let me know which one you found better helped you and why! We would love to hear more feedback here on the investments we are making in documentation.

Facebook Application using ASP.NET

I want to develop a Facebook application (it is a simple quiz with 3 questions) using ASP.NET, but this is the first time that I've even tried doing it. I have found lots of confusing information on the internet and I wanted to ask what is the best and most correct way to do it (an API or something) and if there is a simple tutorial to get me started. Thanks in advance.
The way I've previously done this is to create a standard ASP.NET MVC application and use the .NET API:
