You can get started with Sisk here or build the documentation repository here.

For information about release notes, changelogs and API breaking changes, please refer to changelogs archive.

You can install the latest release from Nuget packages:

dotnet add package Sisk.HttpServer

In this repository, you have the source code of:

• Sisk.HttpServer: the Sisk Framework mainframe and core functions.
• Sisk.SslProxy: an experimental SSL proxy provider for Sisk.
• Sisk.IniConfiguration: an INI-document configuration provider for Sisk.
• Sisk.BasicAuth: the basic authentication package which provides helper request handlers for handling authentication.

The Sisk core idea is to create a service that runs on the internet and follows the pattern you define. Moreover, Sisk is a framework that adapts to how you want it to work, not the other way around.

Due to its explicit nature, its behavior is predictable. The main differentiator from ASP.NET is that Sisk can be up and running in very few lines of code, avoiding unnecessary configurations, and requiring the minimum setup to get your server working. Additionally, it does not demand any additional .NET SDK packages to develop, as the base package of .NET 6 is sufficient to start your development with Sisk.

It can handle multiple requests asynchronously, provides useful tools to manage and accelerate web development.

using Sisk.Core.Http;

class Program
{
    static async Task Main(string[] args)
    {
        using var app = HttpServer.CreateBuilder(5555).Build();

        app.Router.MapGet("/", request =>
        {
            return new HttpResponse("Hello, world!");
        });

        await app.StartAsync(); // 🚀 app is listening on http://localhost:5555/
    }
}

Sisk can do web development the way you want. Create MVC, MVVC, SOLID applications, or any other design pattern you're interested in.

• Flexible: you're not limited to build an full-featured web application, but it can be an module to your existing project.
• Lightweight: robust projects tested in small, low-cost, low-performance environments and got good results.
• Open-source: the entire Sisk ecosystem is open source, and all the libraries and technologies we use must be open source as well. Sisk is entirely distributed under the MIT License, which allows the commercial development.
• Sustainable: you are the one who makes the project, Sisk gives you the tools. Because it is open source, the community (including you) can maintain, fix bugs and improve Sisk over time.

Special thanks to all the contributors who have helped Sisk to grow and improve.
