Samples for RESTful web services for WCF

Hello everyone,

I am new to RESTful web services in WCF, but not new to WCF. I want to develop some simple RESTful web services in WCF which manually be accessed from browser. Any good samples or documents to recommend? I am using C#.

thanks in advance, George

Aaron Skonnard of PluralSight has a bunch of great little screencasts on Channel9 and is probably the best intro I've seen - you'll probably do well to have some WCF experience first - those coming from the world of SOAP will pick it up easier.

Also, stick this in Bing

restful site:msdn.com

--this site won't let me post more than one link--grrrr

Thanks, it is video training. I prefer to have some documents and copyable code, any suggestions?

Sure, there's a whole starter kit and part of MSDN for RESTful services. Check out http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/netframework/cc950529.aspx and good luck!

Woo! Too many stuff in the portal, any recommendations where to read begin with? I need some step-by-step simple samples to write restful web services.

To be honest, download the starter kit as it has samples and new templates for VS.Like anything, you can't save time learning, only reorder what you spend time doing.Watch the first getting started with the SDK screencast and use a project template to kick things off.I've not actually created anything but I watched and read alot about the REST kit in order to prepare to convert my beta SOAP services.

I wrote a short blog post showing how to build REST services using WCF (sample code included). Keep in mind this example does not use the REST Toolkit released by Microsoft.
