Technology Stack Overview

We are in the midst of a significant modernization effort to update and enhance our application’s architecture and user experience. Below is an overview of our current technology stack, along with the new technologies we are incorporating as part of this modernization.

Current Technology Stack
Programming Languages: C#, Razor, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, T-SQL
Frameworks and Libraries: ASP.NET MVC, jQuery, Bootstrap, DataTables.net, HangFire
Databases: SQL Server 2019
Server Technologies: Windows Server 2019 hosting IIS
Tools: GitHub Actions, GitHub NuGet package repository
IDEs: Flexible, with common use of VS Code, JetBrains Rider, Azure Data Studio, and Visual Studio
Version Control: Git with trunk-based development approach

Modernization – New Technologies
Programming Languages: Introduction of TypeScript for stronger typing and enhanced developer productivity
Frameworks and Libraries:
Frontend: Transition to react-router / remix-run, Vite, ag-grid, Shadcn-ui, Tailwind CSS for a modern, efficient UI
Backend: Adoption of ASP.NET "minimal API" based REPR pattern, Entity Framework Core for robust and streamlined backend development
Testing: Utilization of Playwright for UI testing and xUnit for unit/integration testing ensures high-quality releases
Databases: Maintained SQL Server 2019 with plans to migrate to Azure for enhanced scalability and security
Server Technologies: Transitioning hosting to the cloud for improved performance and reliability
Tools and IDEs: Open to any tools that enhance development efficiency and productivity
Other Technologies: The introduction of Kiota for API client generation based on 3rd party OpenAPI specs, and TypeScript client generated from our own OpenAPI spec, ensuring full-stack type safety. This is a key enhancement, providing a seamless development experience by ensuring consistency and reducing bugs between the front-end and back-end code through type-safe API contracts.

Modernization Effort – Transition Strategy
Our modernization blueprint entails shifting from an ASP.NET MVC application with a custom-built jQuery "SPA framework" to a cutting-edge, efficient, and maintainable tech stack:
From:
ASP.NET MVC with Razor views primarily used for rendering a basic HTML and CSS page shell
A custom SPA framework built with jQuery, handling dynamic content loading and interactivity via an ad hoc "loadPageHtml" function that performs AJAX calls to controller actions for HTML content
A custom ORM for dynamic SQL generation and stored procedure calls, along with combining the two in some cases
To:
Embracing a SPA architecture leveraging remix-run in SPA mode, with an interim adoption of react-router
Standardizing on a UI component library to streamline and enhance frontend development
Implementing a REPR based API with a Microsoft Kiota-generated TypeScript client for type safety between C# and TypeScript
Transitioning to Entity Framework Core for database interactions, superseding the custom ORM solution for more standardized and efficient data access

This modernization effort is designed to not only improve the maintainability and scalability of our application but also to enhance the overall user experience through the adoption of modern web technologies and practices.
