.NET development – C#, ASP.NET Core and enterprise APIs

.NET development: C#, ASP.NET Core and enterprise applications

.NET development for scalable business apps, web APIs and Windows services – with ASP.NET Core, Entity Framework and clear integration architecture.

.NET Development

.NET – enterprise-ready and cloud-ready

With .NET and C# we build web APIs, portals and desktop components at home in Microsoft environments and hybrid cloud setups. ASP.NET Core delivers performance, structured DI and strong tooling.

We also support Delphi-to-.NET migrations and modernisation of older .NET Framework estates – with working intermediate releases instead of big-bang.

Technology overview: .NET Development — stack details and use cases on our technology page.

Our .NET services

From APIs to Windows services – typed and testable.

ASP.NET Core web APIs

REST and gRPC endpoints, authentication (Entra ID, JWT), versioning and integration into existing landscapes.

Enterprise & LOB apps

Forms, workflows, reporting and connection to SQL Server, PostgreSQL or existing ERP systems.

Migration & modernisation

Delphi, VB6 or .NET Framework lifted step by step to .NET 8/9 – including UI strategy (web vs desktop).

Azure & DevOps

App Service, containers, Key Vault, pipelines – operations with monitoring and clear runbooks.

C# & EF Core

Clean layers, migrations and unit tests with xUnit.

Security

OWASP-oriented APIs, secrets in vaults, regular updates.

Delphi migration

Experience modernising Delphi to .NET in mid-market companies.

Integration

ERP, finance interfaces and line-of-business connectors.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

  • When is .NET the right choice?
    For Microsoft stacks, strongly typed domains, enterprise policies or Delphi/VB6 estates targeting .NET. For pure content sites or AI backends we often evaluate PHP, Python or Node.js.
  • What does .NET development cost?
    Smaller APIs from around €18,000; larger LOB or migration programmes €50,000–150,000. Migration effort depends heavily on UI and data model.
  • Do you work with .NET Framework and .NET 8?
    Yes – we maintain Framework 4.x estates and build new work on .NET 8/9. Roadmaps show the gradual transition.
  • Cloud or on-premise?
    Both – Azure is common, but also IIS on-prem or Kubernetes. Decision based on compliance, latency and IT policy.
  • How does a Delphi-to-.NET migration work with you?
    Typically: estate review, target architecture (WinForms, WPF, Blazor), pilot module, then incremental domain migration with parallel operation. Details: /en/services/delphi-development/delphi-migration-dotnet and /en/services/legacy-modernization.
  • Do you use ASP.NET Core with Entra ID and JWT?
    Yes—authentication via Microsoft Entra ID, JWT for APIs and role-based authorization are standard. Hybrid scenarios exist for on-prem AD; we document identity flows for audit and operations.
  • Do you handle maintenance and releases after go-live?
    Yes—under retainer with SLAs, security patches and planned .NET upgrades. Alternatively handover with runbooks and team training. Many clients start with support and reduce external share gradually.
  • How do you test .NET APIs and desktop components?
    Unit tests (xUnit), integration tests against Testcontainers/SQL and—where useful—E2E for critical flows. CI pipelines block releases on red tests. More: /en/services/testing-qa.

.NET in practice

We structure solutions in domain, application and infrastructure layers – testable without smart UI. Releases run through automated pipelines with quality gates.

  • Nullable reference types and analyzers in CI
  • Integration tests against Testcontainers/SQL
  • Structured logging (Serilog/OpenTelemetry)
  • API contracts documented for frontend teams

In the initial call we clarify estate, target architecture and a realistic migration or greenfield plan.
