.NET Core vs Hoodie: What are the differences?
What is .NET Core? An Open Source, General-Purpose Development Platform Maintained by Microsoft and the .NET Community. Cross-platform (supporting Windows, macOS, and Linux) and can be used to build device, cloud, and IoT applications.
What is Hoodie? A fast offline-first architecture for webapps. Super-simple user management & storage. Great for mobile. We want to enable you to build complete web apps in days, without having to worry about backends, databases or servers, all with an open source library that's as simple to use as jQuery.
.NET Core and Hoodie belong to "Frameworks (Full Stack)" category of the tech stack.
Some of the features offered by .NET Core are:
- Cross-platform
- Consistent across architectures
- Command-line tools
On the other hand, Hoodie provides the following key features:
- Offline by default: Hoodie stores data locally first and syncs them in the background when possible. Great for mobile applications
- One-line signup/signin/signout/resend password and other account management functions
- Document-based storage with CouchDB: no building database schemas
"Great performance" is the primary reason why developers consider .NET Core over the competitors, whereas "JSON" was stated as the key factor in picking Hoodie.
.NET Core and Hoodie are both open source tools. It seems that .NET Core with 11.2K GitHub stars and 2.41K forks on GitHub has more adoption than Hoodie with 3.51K GitHub stars and 314 GitHub forks.
