RazorLight
A .NET template engine using Microsoft's Razor parsing engine for building templates from files, embedded resources, strings, or custom sources outside of ASP.NET MVC.
What is RazorLight?
RazorLight is a .NET template engine that uses Microsoft's Razor parsing engine to generate dynamic content from templates. It enables developers to create and render templates from various sources like files, embedded resources, strings, or databases without requiring ASP.NET MVC. It solves the problem of needing a flexible, high-performance templating solution for non-web scenarios such as email generation, report creation, or document rendering.
.NET developers who need to generate dynamic text content (e.g., emails, reports, documents) outside of web applications, particularly those already familiar with Razor syntax from ASP.NET MVC.
Developers choose RazorLight because it provides the familiar and powerful Razor syntax without the bloat of ASP.NET MVC, supports multiple template sources, includes performance optimizations like caching, and works seamlessly with .NET Core and .NET Standard.
