ASP.NET vNext is a lean and composable framework for building web and cloud applications. ASP.NET vNext is currently in preview and the alpha version with VS 2014 is out. With the next version of ASP.NET you get the power and throughput of the .NET runtime plus the “Roslyn” compiler-as-a-service.
Features of ASP.NET vNEXT
- Cloud and server-optimized
- ASP.NET MVC and Web API have been unified into a single programming model
- No-compile developer experience – Compiler as a service – You change the C# Code and refresh the browser.
- Dependency injection out of the box
- Side by side – deploy the runtime and framework with your application – allow you to deploy your own version of .NET Framework on an app-by-app-basis
- NuGet everything – even the runtime itself
- All Open Source via the .NET Foundation and takes contributions
- Oh, and by the way, it is fully open source and available on Github 🙂
I have come up with a blog on “Complier as a service” which you can find it here.
