Nano contains many features, that is commonly required or needed by applications.
This ranges from data context interface, logging, configuration, documentation, services, routing, versioning, controllers and much more. Below is a non-exhausted list of features covered by Nano.

You Implement	Nano Provides
You implement your models.	Application, Configuration, Logging, Advanced Data Access, Eventing, Security.
You implement data mappings for your models.	Hosting, Routing, Documentation, Exception Handling, Api-Client, Validation.
You implement query criteria for your models.	Versioning, Dependency Injection, Audit, Authentication, Authorization.
You implement derived controllers for your models.	and I could continue.

Providers

• Data - Data storage provider and model to data context mapping.
• Logging - Logging provider and output sink.
• Eventing - Message queuing, publish / subscribe topology.

Nano Dependencies

• Application - Startup class, startup.cs. Derive from DefaultApplication.
• Controllers - Application http endpoints, annotated model state validation. Derive from DefaultController.
• Services - Generic service interface interacting with the data context. Unit-of-work pattern, scoped transaction, annotated event publication.
• Data Context - Repository implementation, storage integration (CRUD), model mapping registration. Derive from DefaultDbContext.
• Models - The entities of the application. Derive from DefaultEntity.
• Models Mappings - The mappings of models and their properties to the data context. Derive from DefaultEntityMapping.
• Query Criteria - The contract for querying models of a controller. Includes Pagination, Ordering and custom Criteria implementation. Derive from DefaultQueryCriteria.
