A low code library .NET for RealTime UI

Direct communication between SignalR and the DOM via JS to interact with UI.

The main goal is to create a full framework that allows real time interaction using only server side .NET 5 without touching HTML or JS.

How it works

After connecting to SignalR, the client has its own unique instance associated with the server side.

Every server-side operation is replicated on the client side, the trees built in this way are comparable in number and type and can be defined as "mirrored".

The client is reduced to a passive tool that reacts to commands from the server by building the UI or reacting to actions performed by the user.

Client-side operations are performed at a low level in the DOM, using

In this way we can work at a high level focusing on the single server-side element as an object that talks to itself through SignalR.
