We have hosted the application giraffe in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about giraffe:

A functional ASP.NET Core micro web framework for building rich web applications. Giraffe is an F# micro web framework for building rich web applications. It has been heavily inspired and is similar to Suave, but has been specifically designed with ASP.NET Core in mind and can be plugged into the ASP.NET Core pipeline via middleware. Giraffe applications are composed of so called HttpHandler functions which can be thought of a mixture of Suave's WebParts and ASP.NET Core's middleware. Giraffe is intended for developers who want to build rich web applications on top of ASP.NET Core in a functional first approach. ASP.NET Core is a powerful web platform which has support by Microsoft and a huge developer community behind it and Giraffe is aimed at F# developers who want to benefit from that eco system.

Features:

• Lean micro framework which aims to complement ASP.NET Core
• The fundamental idea is to build on top of the strong foundation of ASP.NET Core
• Re-use existing ASP.NET Core building blocks so F# developers can benefit from both worlds
• You can think of Giraffe as the functional counter part of the ASP.NET Core MVC framework
• The easiest way to get started with Giraffe is by installing the giraffe-template package
• You can create a new Giraffe application by running dotnet new giraffe
