Butterfly.Server 
The Everything is Real-Time C# Backend for Single Page Applications
Overview
Butterfly.Server is a set of packages that can be used separately or can be used together to create integrated solutions to create modern web apps with a C# backend. The purpose of this repo is to show examples of how to use the components together.
Butterfly.Server is especially well suited to powering SPAs (single page applications) by providing...
- A RESTlike API enabling clients to receive static data and perform actions
- A Subscription API enabling clients to automatically receive real-time updates when data changes
- A Database API that avoids object-relational mappings and publishes data change events
- A Messaging API that provides a consistent API to send emails and texts
Butterfly.Server consists of the following components...
- Butterfly.Auth - Authenticate clients using Butterfly.Db and Butterfly.Web
- Butterfly.Client - Clients (javascript and .NET) that can subscribe real-time updates from a Butterfly.Web server
- Butterfly.Db - Reactive database SELECTs for popular relational databases
- Butterfly.Message - Send emails and text messages via the same API
- Butterfly.Util - Collection of utility classes and methods
- Butterfly.Web - Simple RESTlike and Subscription API server
Butterfly.Server...
- Targets .NET Framework 2.1 (.NET Core 3.0)
- Fully supports async/await
- Does not depend on ASP.NET
- Does not use polling for real-time updates

Examples
The following examples are a good way to understand how to use the Butterfly.Server components...
- Butterfly.Example.Contacts - Shows a Vue.js web client managing a set of contacts by interacting with a Butterfly.Server
- Butterfly.Example.DbEvents - Shows how to perform basic database operations and see generated data events
- Butterfly.Example.Echo - Shows a "Hello World" alert box in a client
- Butterfly.Example.RealtimeStreamingChart - Shows a client with a real-time streaming chart updated from a server (uses Smoothie Charts)
- Butterfly.Example.Todos - Shows a Vue.js web client managing a set of to-dos by interacting with a Butterfly.Server
