ASP.NET Core API Webapp

I have a small, self-contained web project that I’d like finished in ASP.NET Core. The goal is straightforward: spin up a lightweight web application that consumes and displays data from an external REST API. No desktop or console layers are needed—everything lives in the web tier.

Here’s what I already have in mind and what I need from you:

• A clean ASP.NET Core solution (latest LTS) with minimal boilerplate.
• Solid API integration: call the remote endpoints, handle authentication/headers if required, and surface the responses in a simple Razor or minimal-API friendly view.
• Basic error handling and clear, commented code so I can extend it later.

I’m not asking for a full-scale user system or heavy database work—just the API integration wired into a runnable project. If you can turn this around quickly and keep the code easy to read, we’re set. Let me know your estimated timeline and any clarifying questions, and we can get started right away.
