Documentation for ASP.NET Core

The official documentation source for ASP.NET Core, hosted on learn.microsoft.com. This is a content repo — Markdown files, static assets, and CI tooling — not a code library. It's for developers who want to contribute corrections or additions to the official docs, or who want to read the source of what gets published.

Well-organized topic hierarchy that mirrors the actual framework surface area (Blazor, security, performance, hosting models each get their own subtree). Active maintenance — last push was yesterday, and the GitHub Actions workflows include automated issue triage and a 'what's new' agent that generates release notes from the changelog. Contribution path is low-friction: the issue templates collect article metadata automatically, and CODEOWNERS routes PRs to the right doc owner without manual triage. The samples live alongside the docs, so code examples can be verified against the actual articles.

This is documentation, not a library — starring or forking it gives you nothing you couldn't get by bookmarking the published site, so the 13k stars are mostly noise. The Markdown files are tightly coupled to the Microsoft Learn publishing pipeline (.openpublishing.publish.config.json, include directives, zone-pivot syntax) and won't render correctly in a standard Markdown viewer or static site generator. Version coverage is uneven: some pages cover .NET 9 and 10 well, others still have outdated guidance that predates the Blazor render-mode changes introduced in .NET 8. No offline or PDF export is supported from this repo directly.
