An API Gateway
Many folks have tried their chance on creating an API gateway in their favorite platform. I am no exception as today I created my own API gateway called Valdis. It is based on .Net 5. Valdis is a play on words validation and distribution. As its name implies, it validates the requests and then distributes them to existing microservice nodes. The way it works is not based on redirection, instead, it sends the request to the node internally, receives the answer and then sends it back to the original caller finally.

Is Web Forms still not an option in .net 6.0?

knowing what I know now I must flee
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.
- Microsoft, please open-source Web Forms 🚫⬇️🚌
