Building an API Gateway with YARP in .NET

Hello, .NET developers! 👋

Have you ever struggled with creating an efficient API Gateway for your microservices? YARP (Yet Another Reverse Proxy) might be the solution you've been looking for!

In my latest article, I guide you through implementing an API Gateway using YARP in .NET. Here's a taste of what you'll find:

  • Why YARP is a solid alternative to Ocelot
  • How to configure YARP in a .NET project
  • Implementing an example microservice
  • Best practices for routing and request handling

Code Sample

Here's a small snippet to pique your interest:

var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

builder.Services.AddReverseProxy()
    .LoadFromConfig(builder.Configuration.GetSection("ReverseProxy"));

var app = builder.Build();

app.MapReverseProxy();

app.Run();
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

This is just the beginning! In the full article, you'll find detailed explanations and more complex examples in Italian.
