About

Microsoft ASP.NET Core is an open-source, cross-platform web framework and the successor to ASP.NET that enables development of web apps and APIs using .NET on Windows, macOS, or Linux.

It offers high performance via the Kestrel server, built-in dependency injection, unified MVC and Web API programming, minimal APIs, flexible configuration per environment, and side-by-side versioning.

Microsoft ASP.NET MVC is a web application platform that implements the model-view-controller pattern as part of the ASP.NET framework.

Unlike ASP.NET Web Forms, it avoids view state and server-side form events, gives developers full control over generated HTML, uses a front-controller routing system, and supports easier unit testing.
