An ASP.NET Core adapter for Inertia.js, enabling server-driven single-page applications with modern frontend frameworks.
InertiaCore is an ASP.NET Core adapter for Inertia.js, a library that enables building server-driven single-page applications (SPAs) without creating a separate API. It bridges ASP.NET Core with frontend frameworks like Vue.js and React, allowing developers to use traditional server-side routing and controllers while maintaining a modern, responsive frontend experience.
ASP.NET Core developers who want to build SPAs with Vue.js or React without the overhead of designing and maintaining a separate API layer, preferring server-side MVC patterns.
Developers choose InertiaCore because it eliminates API complexity by enabling direct data passing from server controllers to frontend components, includes built-in features like validation error handling and SSR, and integrates seamlessly with modern tooling like Vite for hot module replacement.

Passes ASP.NET Core model validation errors to the frontend automatically, as shown in form endpoints where validation errors are handled without extra code in the README example.
Includes a Vite helper for asset bundling and hot module replacement, with detailed configuration examples for React and Vue apps, simplifying modern frontend tooling setup.
Handles serialization of models with relations without circular reference issues, a key feature explicitly mentioned to prevent common data serialization problems.
Provides server-side rendering for improved SEO and performance, configurable via options in the service setup, though it requires enabling and managing a separate SSR server.
Relies on npm packages like laravel-vite-plugin and specific Vite configurations, which can complicate setup and deviate from standard ASP.NET Core workflows.
Examples and guidance focus primarily on Vue and React, with minimal support for other Inertia.js frameworks like Svelte, potentially requiring extra trial and error.
Enabling server-side rendering necessitates setting up and maintaining a separate SSR server with URL configuration, adding deployment and development complexity.
