The Everything is Real-Time C# Backend for Single Page Applications

Overview

Butterfly.Server is a set of packages that can be used separately or can be used together to create integrated solutions to create modern web apps with a C# backend. The purpose of this repo is to show examples of how to use the components together.

Butterfly.Server is especially well suited to powering SPAs (single page applications) by providing...

  • A RESTlike API enabling clients to receive static data and perform actions
  • A Subscription API enabling clients to automatically receive real-time updates when data changes
  • A Database API that avoids object-relational mappings and publishes data change events
  • A Messaging API that provides a consistent API to send emails and texts

Butterfly.Server consists of the following components...

Butterfly.Server...

  • Targets .NET Framework 2.1 (.NET Core 3.0)
  • Fully supports async/await
  • Does not depend on ASP.NET
  • Does not use polling for real-time updates
