ServiceStack is a config-free, code-first web and services framework embraced around Martin Fowler’s remote-service best-practices in idiomatic C#. Its message-based design provides the most advantages for remote services encapsulating them in their most re-usable form allowing the same service to be called in REST, SOAP, MQ services enabling .NET’s most succinct, end-to-end typed API.
ServiceStack’s Web Services Framework is an alternative to WCF, WCF/REST, .asmx, Web-API, MVC, WebForms, WebPages, CSF, WSE, WCF DataServices, RIA Services, and System.Messaging.
We’ll dive head first into ServiceStack and show how quickly we can build a full Web API from scratch using the ServiceStack Framework and ServiceStack’s own ORM, OrmLite.
