I want to build a personal portfolio/blog site with asp.net core and reactjs are there any tutorials for this that could help me. I’m a complete beginner in webdev. (also not sure what database to use but thats not c# related)

I’ve referred to this in the past when looking to integrate my projects with react.

With regard to database you can use almost any database with the Entity Framework. This will integrate nicely with your asp.net app. ; https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/ef/core/providers/?tabs=dotnet-core-cli
Will it be difficult if I use javascript rather than typescript?
