What is DotVVM?

DotVVM is an open source ASP.NET framework that lets you build line-of-business applications and SPAs without writing tons of JavaScript code. You only have to write a viewmodel in C# and a view in HTML. DotVVM will do the rest for you.

DotVVM brings full MVVM experience and it uses Knockout JS on the client side. It handles the client-server communication, validation, localization, date & time formatting on the client side, SPAs and much more.

It is open source, it supports both OWIN and ASP.NET Core and it runs on .NET Framework, .NET Core and Mono.

Features

• Syntax highlighting in .dothtml, .dotmaster and .dotcontrol files
• IntelliSense for DotVVM controls and their properties (with auto-detection of DotVVM libraries: Bootstrap for DotVVM, DotVVM Business Pack)
