Saturn

F# web framework that implements the server-side MVC pattern on top of ASP.NET Core and Giraffe.

Saturn is a web framework written in F# that implements the server-side MVC pattern. The overview page says it is built on top of ASP.NET Core and Giraffe.

New projects come from a dotnet template, installed with the dotnet CLI, and the getting-started guide walks through creating a project and running it. The guide says the code generator uses only SQLite.
