 * **DTO** classes are used to transfer data between the presentation layer and the application layer. See the [Data Transfer Objects document](../../Data-Transfer-Objects.md) for details.
+* `BookDto` is used to transfer a book data to the presentation layer to show a book information on the UI.
+* `BookDto` is derived from the `AuditedEntityDto<Guid>` which has audit properties just like the `Book` defined above.
+* `[AutoMapFrom(typeof(Book))]` is used to create AutoMapper mapping from the `Book` class to the `BookDto` class. Thus, you can automatically convert `Book` objects to `BookDto` objects (instead of manually copy all properties).

+* This DTO class is used to get book information from the user interface.
+* Each property has a `[Display]` property which sets the label on the form for the related input. It's also integrated to the localization system.
+* It defines data annotation attributes (like `[Required]`) to define validations for the properties.
+* Each property has a `[Display]` property which sets the label on UI forms for the related inputs. It's also integrated to the localization system. The same DTO will be used as View Model. That's why it defines that attribute. You may find incorrect to use DTOs as View Models. You could use a separated view model class, but we thought it's practical and makes the sample project less complex.

 * Defining interfaces for application services is <u>not required</u> by the framework. However, it's suggested as a good practice.
 * `IAsyncCrudAppService` defines common CRUD methods: `GetAsync`, `GetListAsync`, `CreateAsync`, `UpdateAsync` and `DeleteAsync`. It's not required to extend it. Instead you could inherit from the empty `IApplicationService` interface and define your own methods.
-* There are some variations of the `IAsyncCrudAppService`. In this sample, the first generic parameter, `BookDto`, is the DTO used for service methods and the second parameter, `Guid`, is the type of the primary key of the entity.

-* `CreateBookViewModel` is a nested class that will be used to create and post the form.
-  * Each property has a `[Display]` property which sets the label on the form for the related input. It's also integrated to the localization system.
-  * Each property has data annotations for validation which is used for validation in the client side and the server side and automatically localized.
 * `[BindProperty]` attribute on the `Book` property binds post request data to this property.
-
-##### AutoMapper Configuration
-
-`OnPostAsync` method maps `CreateBookViewModel` object to `BookDto` object (which is accepted by the `BookAppService.CreateAsync` method).
-
-Open the `BookStoreWebAutoMapperProfile` class and add the mapping:
-
-````C#
-using Acme.BookStore.Pages.Books;
-using AutoMapper;
-using Volo.Abp.AutoMapper;
-
-namespace Acme.BookStore
-{
-    public class BookStoreWebAutoMapperProfile : Profile
-    {
-        public BookStoreWebAutoMapperProfile()
-        {
-            CreateMap<CreateModalModel.CreateBookViewModel, BookDto>()
-                .Ignore(x => x.Id);
-        }
-    }
-}
-
-````
-
-Thus, AutoMapper will create the mapping configuration between classes and will ignore the `Id` property of the `BookDto` class (to satisfy the configuration validation - see below).
-
-##### AutoMapper Configuration Validation
-
-AutoMapper has a [configuration validation feature](http://automapper.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Configuration-validation.html) which is not enabled for the startup template by default. If you want to perform validation, go to the `BookStoreWebModule` class, find the `ConfigureAutoMapper` method and change the `AddProfile` line as shown below:
-
-````c#
-options.AddProfile<BookStoreWebAutoMapperProfile>(validate: true);
-````
-
-It's up to you to use validation or not. It can prevent mapping mistakes, but comes with a cost of configuration. See [AutoMapper's documentation](http://automapper.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Configuration-validation.html) to fully understand it.
