About dotnet/aspnetcore
ASP.NET Core is a free, open-source, and cross-platform framework built on .NET for creating modern web applications, IoT applications, and mobile backends. It runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux and is optimized for cloud-based deployments as well as on-premises solutions. The framework is designed with modularity and minimal overhead in mind, allowing developers to build flexible solutions with only the components they need.
The project provides a complete development stack with features for building internet-connected applications across various platforms and deployment scenarios. ASP.NET Core includes modular components and integrates with related technologies like Entity Framework Core for data access, Razor for template syntax, and the broader .NET runtime. The framework supports building web apps, IoT apps, and mobile backends with a unified development experience.
The project actively welcomes community contributions through multiple channels including daily builds, community standups streamed on YouTube, a public roadmap, and dedicated issue tracking for help-wanted and good-first-issue contributions. Security issues are handled through Microsoft's Security Response Center, and the project maintains comprehensive documentation alongside its source code. Related projects include documentation sources, data access technologies, the .NET runtime, and Razor compiler tooling.
