A general-purpose application framework for building modern web applications with ASP.NET Core and Entity Framework Core.
ASP.NET Boilerplate is a general-purpose application framework specifically designed for building modern web applications. It provides a solid architectural foundation with built-in best practices, multi-tenancy support, and modular design, allowing developers to focus on business logic rather than repetitive infrastructure code. The framework works with both the latest ASP.NET Core/EF Core stack and legacy ASP.NET MVC 5.x/EF 6.x environments.
Enterprise developers and teams building modern web applications, particularly those requiring multi-tenancy, modular architecture, and adherence to SOLID principles and Domain Driven Design.
Developers choose ASP.NET Boilerplate for its comprehensive feature set that automates common development tasks, its well-documented layered architecture based on DDD, and its support for both cutting-edge and legacy .NET stacks, significantly reducing time-to-market for complex applications.

Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Designed with a module system for creating reusable components, making it easy to extend and maintain large applications, as detailed in the modular design documentation.
Offers integrated SaaS support from database to UI, simplifying development of tenant-aware applications without custom infrastructure, per the multi-tenancy features.
Provides a layered architectural model based on Domain Driven Design, enforcing SOLID principles and reducing complexity in enterprise-scale projects.
Reduces boilerplate by automating common tasks through conventions, allowing developers to focus on unique business logic, as emphasized in the framework's philosophy.
Support ends in May 2026, as announced in the README, making it unsuitable for new long-term projects and necessitating migration to alternatives like ABP Framework.
The comprehensive DDD-based architecture and modular system introduce a steep learning curve and overhead, which can be prohibitive for simpler applications or teams new to enterprise patterns.
Heavy reliance on specific conventions and modules, such as Module Zero, may hinder integration with other tools or frameworks, limiting flexibility in technology choices.
