I generated that service in JetBrains Rider with a few clicks I think it was .net core -> ASP.NET Core Web Application and then under 'SDK' on the right, you can pick the type of project, I picked WebAPI. Don't know if VS has the same template but I wouldn't be surprised. Generating services is a feature that we have planned for a future update indeed. In the meantime the IDE templates do get you started rather quickly. I had to delete some code and rename a controller but that was basically it
