    Have a look at DotMVVM. They've gone to great lengths to provide a gradual upgrade process for Webforms projects.

    If you have any experience with modern web development, this could actually be a great opportunity. I'm in a similar situation with an application that is extremely old and running on Web Forms (and in VB.NET, god I hate that language). Pretty much every developer on my team has no idea how to build a modern web site, so I get to run pretty much everything related to modernization. It's great experience for the resume. I would recommend using DotVVM (https://www.dotvvm.com) for a rewrite. It's not very popular yet, but it lets you iteratively migrate web forms apps to a .NET Core compliant application. From there, you could rewrite even further into something like React.

    I have one first step for the upgrade: Change WebForms to DotVVM. Sadly, that is already an enormous task :(

    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.
  • C# web framework without .net??

    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.
