YARP VS zerosharp

Adding to the other answers here, you might find some useful functionality in YARP if you want a pure .NET reverse proxy. Like Kestrel, Microsoft dogfoods YARP in Azure.

➡️ Release 2.0.0-RC.1 · microsoft/reverse-proxy · GitHub ➡️ Visual Studio 2022 17.5 Preview 3 is here!

In your application, you may be using YARP, to build a reverse proxy gateway sitting in front of various backend applications. For example, you may run YARP to listen on example.org, and have it proxy all requests going to this domain while mapping /api and /docs to different web apps running on diffreent servers.

Microsoft already made YARP for their Azure infrastructure, it's a "build your own reverse proxy" kit.

If I was to need one I would probably reach for YARP (Yet Another Reverse Proxy) from MS. https://microsoft.github.io/reverse-proxy/

Microsoft's YARP is exactly this.

Not sure why you would want to use C# without it’s open source framework but here it is: https://github.com/MichalStrehovsky/zerosharp

C# without .NET is like C without glibc. Possible but you'll need another core library. For C# that would be something like Mono or ZeroSharp.

NativeAOT definetely can do bare metal, here's an example of a very basic EFI boot application:

Here's one example repo that uses that feature if you are interested: https://github.com/MichalStrehovsky/zerosharp

This is false. You can even make UEFI application in C#

check https://github.com/MichalStrehovsky/zerosharp/tree/master/efi-no-runtime

Kind of. There's https://github.com/MichalStrehovsky/zerosharp demonstrating some bare metal capabilities.
