Welcome to the RESTier wiki !

RESTier now is still a preview version, all kinds of feedback are warmly welcome.

Brief Introduction

RESTier is a RESTful API development framework for building standardized, OData V4 based REST services on .NET. It can be seen as a middle-ware on top of Web API OData. RESTier can provide convenience to bootstrap an OData service and add business logic like what WCF Data Services does as well as flexibily and easy customization like what Web API OData does.

RESTier can be easily installed by running the following command in the Package Manager Console

PM> Install-Package Microsoft.Restier -Pre 

Or get it directly from nuget.org
