Introduction
In ASP.NET Core 6, generic types are used extensively throughout the framework. They allow for greater flexibility and reusability of code, making it easier to write more robust and maintainable applications. In this blog post, we will explore how to use generic types in an Interface MVC C# application.
What are Generic Types?
Generic types are a feature of the .NET framework that allow you to define a type with one or more placeholders for specific types. These placeholders are known as type parameters and can be used to specify the type of data that a generic class, method, or property will work with.

{
public T Property { get; set; }
}

csharp
