Why ASP.NET Core for Enterprise Web Application Development?

ASP.Net Development offers an ideal blend of web development models which contains all the services needed to construct sturdy enterprise-grade web applications. Despite the fact that web developers have different options while choosing a framework to work with, ASP.NET MVC always seems to be at the top. For a large portion of the web developers, it is the most preferred framework. Despite the fact that ASP.NET has been in presence for over 10 years now, we have seen a wide scope of advancements to the framework.

ASP.NET Core MVC: A Modern and Open Source Framework

A sturdy feature-heavy framework that is becoming a prominent choice for web developers is ASP.NET Core MVC 6. Note that ASP.NET Core MVC is distinct in relation to ASP.NET MVC such that the last is just used to develop applications that keep running inside the Windows platform.

ASP.NET Core is an overhaul of the great ASP.NET 4.x with architectural changes that are lined up with present-day development approaches bringing about a more thin and modular framework. It's an open-source and cross-platform development architecture that can be utilized for deployment on a cloud or on-premise.

Why use ASP.NET Core MVC for your Web Development needs?

ASP.NET Core MVC utilizes the advantages within ASP.NET Core (as shown below) to make the life of developers less-demanding. ASP.NET Core MVC enables you to develop super-quick APIs for versatile application backends and web applications.

Let's see what makes ASP.NET Core the best choice for Enterprise web application development.

    • The MVC Architecture

      • In the older times of ASP.NET, developers needed to stress over things like "IsPostBack" and "ViewState". However, with MVC, web app development has turned out to be progressively straightforward and the work process is becoming increasingly productive. What's more, the most recent ASP.NET Core framework additionally aids in creating web APIs and testing web applications in a better way, by accomplishing a distinct division of concerns.
      • In basic terms, ASP.NET Core makes it less demanding for designers to code, assemble, and test applications in either view, model, or the controller.
    • Razor Pages

      • Razor Pages is a component of ASP.NET Core that simplifies programming page-specific situations. It is a page-based coding model that simplifies the web UI building process.
      • In the event that you've had prior experience with ASP.NET MVC framework, you instantly realize that the controller classes are loaded up with a huge number of actions. What's more is that with new things being added in all the time, the list is always growing.
      • With Razor Pages, web pages are independent with its View segment, and the code is managed very well.
    • Support for JavaScript Frameworks

      • As compared to ASP.NET MVC, the new .NET Core framework gives built-in support for mainstream JavaScript frameworks like Angular and React (in addition to Aurelia).
      • In the new ASP.NET Core, "JavaScriptServices" gives the foundation that developers need to create client-side applications by utilizing the previously mentioned JavaScript frameworks.
      • "JavaScriptServices" fundamentally plans to dispose of hidden pipelines to enable developers to begin coding applications faster, making it conceivable to create feature-heavy front-end web apps.
    • Improved Collaboration & Cross-Platform Support

      • ASP.NET Core has a cross-platform architecture, which means that the applications created with this system can keep running on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS. What's more, the developers are additionally allowed to pick the OS they are going to develop in as well.
      • In straightforward terms, what that means is that developers can work over Linux, Mac OS, or Windows and they will still be able to collaborate on their common project. This is achieved with the consolidated experience of the Visual Studio IDE.
      • To put it plainly, the ASP.NET Core framework has the ability to develop and run web apps on the OS of your choice.
  • In-Built Dependency Injection Support

    • ASP.NET Core has an in-built dependency injection, which means you don't have to depend on 3rd-party frameworks like Ninject or AutoFactor.
    • Dependence Injection is essentially a pattern that can enable developers to recognize the diverse sections or parts of their applications. Before the arrival of ASP.NET Core, the best way to get Dependency Injection in any application was by utilizing the 3rd-party frameworks. Yet, in ASP.NET Core, the Dependency Injection is treated as a top-of-the-line subject. This means that the developers are not restricted to just web applications, and they can use new libraries in event-driven applications, for example, AWS Lambda and Azure Functions.
    • Generally speaking, the dependency injection in ASP.NET Core enhances the testing capabilities and scalability of web applications.


Concluding Note…

ASP.NET Core is a new beginning of enterprise-grade web application improvement. With consistent enhancements to its highlights, an ASP.NET developer's life has turned out to be far simpler, and the businesses' digital presence more effective. Settling on ASP.NET Core is the prime decision among enterprises to manufacture web applications.
