ABP Framework - Open Source Web Application Framework

Strong
Infrastructure

Full stack application infrastructure.

Domain Driven Design

Designed and developed based on DDD patterns and principles. Provides a layered model for your application.

Authorization

Advanced authorization with user, role and fine-grained permission system. Built on the Microsoft Identity library.

Multi-Tenancy

SaaS applications made easy! Integrated multi-tenancy from database to UI.

Cross Cutting Concerns

Complete infrastructure for authorization, validation, exception handling, caching, audit logging, transaction management and more.

Built-In Bundling & Minification

No need to use external tools for bundling & minification. ABP offers a simpler, dynamic, powerful, modular and built-in way!

Virtual File System

Embed views, scripts, styles, images... into packages/libraries and reuse them in different applications.

Theming

Use and customize the bootstrap-based standard UI theme or create your own.

Bootstrap Tag Helpers & Dynamic Forms

Instead of manually writing the repeating details of bootstrap components, Use ABP's tag helpers to simplify it and take advantage of intellisense. Quickly build UI forms based on a C# model using the dynamic form tag helper.

HTTP APIs & Dynamic Proxies

Automatically expose application services as REST style HTTP APIs, and consume them with dynamic JavaScript and C# proxies.

Complete
Architecture

Modern architecture to create maintainable software solutions.

Domain Driven Design (DDD)
Based Layering Model

Helps you to implement a DDD based layered architecture and build a maintainable code base.

Provides startup templates, abstractions, base classes, services, documentation and guides to help you to develop your application based on DDD patterns & principles.

Microservice
Compatible

The core framework & pre-build modules are designed the microservice architecture in mind.

Provides infrastructure, integrations, samples and documentation to implement microservice solutions easier, while it doesn’t bring additional complexity if you want a monolithic application.

See Details

Modular

ABP provides a module system that allows you to develop reusable application modules, tie into application lifecycle events, and express dependencies between core parts of your system.

Pre-Built Modules & Themes

Open source and commercial modules & themes are ready to use in your business application.

NuGet & NPM Packages

Distributed as NuGet & NPM packages. Easy to install and upgrade.

Extensible/Replaceable

All services & modules are designed extensibility in mind. You can replace services, pages, styles and components.

Don't Repeat
Yourself

Cross Cutting Concerns

Keep your codebase smaller so you can maintain focus on the code that’s specific to your business.

Don’t send time implementing common application requirements on multiple projects.

Authentication & Authorization
Exception Handling
Validation
Database Connection
Transaction management
Audit Logging
Caching
Multitenancy
Data filtering

Convention Over Configuration

ABP implements common application conventions by default with a minimal or zero configuration.

Auto registers known services to dependency injection.
Exposes application services as HTTP APIs by naming conventions.
Creates dynamic HTTP client proxies for C# and JavaScript.
Provides default repositories for your entities.
Manages Unit of Work per web request or application service method.
Publishes create, update & delete events for your entities.

Base Classes

Pre-built base classes for common application patterns.


//Base class for CRUD services
public class PeopleAppService
    : CrudAppService<Person, PersonDto, Guid>,
      IPeopleAppService
    {
    //Generic repository
    public PeopleAppService(
        IRepository<Person, Guid> repository
    ) : base(repository)
    { 
    }
}
