Inspired by ExpressJS and Node, RestEasy is designed to have minimul features, and provide maxiumum productivity.
I like C#. It's a cool language. But Microsoft's tools and frameworks are bloatware (sorry Microsoft). When trudging around in ASP.NET, you can smell the tarpit. Anything that should be easy is non-trivial. Especially when it comes to REST.
That is why RestEasy was born. To provide a simple way to prototype RESTful APIs in C#, without all that bloat.
Going to 'http://localhost:8080/Test' in browser will show "Hello World"
using System;
using RestEasy;
public class HelloWorld
{
public static void Main()
{
//don't use ssl
var rest = new RestService(8080, false);
rest.Register(RestMethod.GET, "/Test", (req, res) => { res.Send("Hello World"); });
rest.Listen();
Console.ReadKey();
}
}using System;
using RestEasy;
using RestEasy.IO;
namespace RestEasyExample
{
class Program
{
private static RestResourceCache resourceCache;
static void Main()

resourceCache = new RestResourceCache(40000); //40mb in-memory cache
//register individual files (relative to executable path)
resourceCache.RegisterFile("index.html");
//register all files in folder

resourceCache.RegisterFolderAndSubFolders("css");
