Correct. WebAPI is "MVC like". It's not exactly the same, but similar.

This may be more introductory https://mva.microsoft.com/en-us/training-courses/web-api-design-jump-start-8689?l=BMxSvaH1_3804984382


>Thank you. The reason I asked is I want to be sure that I am going through the right course in Pluralsight to learn how to do it. For example there is a course "Introduction to the API.NET Web API" which has not "MVC" in the title. So I am wondering .... I just wish they had a very basic one but most of them are for the intermediate level.
