FastEndpoint vs Minimal APIs vs Controller

Here's a tabular comparison between FastEndpoints, Minimal APIs, and Controllers in the context of ASP.NET Core: Feature/Aspect FastEndpoints Minimal APIs Controllers Design Philosophy Focuses on performance and simplicity by providing a fast, endpoint-centric approach Prioritizes minimalism and simplicity, with an emphasis on lightweight, functional programming Based on the MVC pattern, providing a structured, feature-rich approach Performance Optimized for performance with minimal overhead High performance due to minimal abstractions Slightly more overhead due to MVC and routing abstractions Setup Complexity Requires additional setup and configuration but offers more granular control Minimal setup, quickly defined routes, and handlers Requires more setup and configuration with Controllers, Actions, and Routes Routing Explicit routing defined per endpoint, more control over routes Inline routing with lambda expressions, less verbose Attribute-base...

AutoMapper vs FastMapper

Here is a tabular comparison between AutoMapper and FastMapper: Feature/Aspect AutoMapper FastMapper Library Type Object-to-object mapping Object-to-object mapping Performance Slower, especially with large and complex mappings Faster, optimized for performance Setup Complexity Requires configuration for mapping profiles, but highly flexible Minimal setup, focuses on simplicity Custom Mapping Supports custom mapping rules and converters Supports basic custom mapping with less flexibility Inheritance Support Well-supported, can map between base and derived classes Limited inheritance support Null Handling Customizable null handling options Basic null handling Mapping Collections Supports mapping collections with built-in configuration Supports collections, faster due to lightweight processing Flattening and Projection Supports flattening complex objects and nested properties Limited support for flattening Assemblies and Dependencies He...
