C# web framework without .net??

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/csharp

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • EmbedIO

    A tiny, cross-platform, module based web server for .NET

    You could do something like EmbedIO or self-host an OWIN endpoint. But it's not going to "strip away all the magic" so you can learn C# or .Net or all the other stuff easier. You're just moving the goalpost a bit.

  • NancyFx

    Discontinued Lightweight, low-ceremony, framework for building HTTP based services on .Net and Mono. Note: This project is no longer maintained and has been archived.

    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.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
