    Nancyfx - sadly dead in the water now but well worth a read of both the code and docs https://github.com/NancyFx/Nancy/tree/master/

    Being open source doesn't change the support model. It allows willing contributors to step up and fork in the event of total abandonment. As a comparison, nobody forked NancyFx to extend support or keep it alive.

    It sounds like you are talking about asp.net? If you don't want to bother with controllers and attributes and all that you can just use the Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http and Microsoft.AspNetCore.Routing namespaces. As someone that really liked Nancy I felt that this was close enough.

    That's a bit handwavy, which of the major ServiceStack features listed on https://servicestack.net homepage does masstransit do? Ok if you just need what's in masstransit & aren't to up to speed with ServiceStack's latest featureset, but to suggest no-one else would find any of its productive features useful is unnecessarily dismissive.
