.NET Core vs React on Rails: What are the differences?

Developers describe .NET Core as "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. On the other hand, React on Rails is detailed as "Integration of React + Webpack + Rails using rails/webpacker to build Universal (Isomorphic) Apps (aka Server Rendering)". Project Objective: To provide an opinionated and optimal framework for integrating Ruby on Rails with React via the Webpacker gem React on Rails integrates Facebook's React front-end framework with Rails. React v0.14.x and greater is supported, with server rendering. Redux and React-Router are supported as well, also with server rendering, using execJS..

.NET Core and React on Rails 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, React on Rails provides the following key features:

  • server-side rendering
  • turbolinks compatibility
  • redux support

.NET Core and React on Rails 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 React on Rails with 4.32K GitHub stars and 542 GitHub forks.

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
