Apart from going serverless, with Azure Functions, ASP.NET (renamed in .NET 5.0 from ASP.NET Core) has around 20 years of engineering behind it. It's fast and if you know C# it's easy to use.

The whole Web API stack is excellent.

I think the Visual Studio Templates for WebAPI work well. I'm on VS2019 running .NET 5.0 and you can easily spin up a new WebAPI project. Or if you choose Azure functions instead I have a few articles on that too.
