.NET Core vs AdonisJS: What are the differences?
- Architecture: .NET Core is a general-purpose, open-source development platform while AdonisJS is a backend framework focusing on Node.js web applications.
- Language Support: .NET Core primarily supports C# language, whereas AdonisJS utilizes JavaScript and TypeScript for development.
- Community and Ecosystem: .NET Core has a larger community and ecosystem due to its history and backing by Microsoft, while AdonisJS has a more focused community but offers robust features specific to web development.
- Runtime Environment: .NET Core is designed to be platform-independent and can run on Windows, macOS, and Linux, while AdonisJS is built on top of Node.js, making it compatible with various platforms.
- Dependency Injection: .NET Core has a built-in dependency injection container, simplifying the management of object dependencies, whereas AdonisJS requires the use of third-party modules like Awilix for similar functionality.
In Summary, .NET Core and AdonisJS differ in architecture, language support, community, runtime environment, and dependency injection implementation.
I was researching multiple high performance, concurent//parallel languages for the needs of authentication and authorization server, to be built on microservice architecture and Linux OS. Node.js with its asynchronous behavior and event loop suits the case best. Python Django & Flash turns to be slower and .NET Core & Framework wasn't the best choice for the Linux environment at the time (summer 2018).
I also tested Go lang and Rust, although they didn't meet the quick prototyping criteria as both languages are young and lacking libraries or battle-tested ORM.
There has been a lot of buzz around having PostgreSQL for ASP.NET Core 3.1 web apps. But Configuring Identity Server 4 with PostgreSQL is a real challenge. I've made a simple video to configure the ASP.NET Core 3.1 based Web application that uses AngualrJS as front end with Single Page App capabilities with Identity Server 4 talking to the PostgreSQL database. Check out this Video tutorial on how to do that in detail http://bit.ly/2EkotL5 You can access the entire code here on github http://bit.ly/35okpFj
