SG4MVC

SG4MVC is a source generator for ASP.NET MVC Core apps that creates strongly typed helpers that eliminate the use of literal strings in many places.

It is a re-implementation of R4MVC using source generators.

R4MVC runs as you build, and currently has only been tested on net6.0

Benefits

Instead of

@Html.ActionLink("Dinner Details", "Details", "Dinners", new { id = Model.DinnerID }, null)

SG4MVC lets you write

@Html.ActionLink("Dinner Details", MVC.Dinners.Details(Model.DinnerID))

When you're using tag helpers, instead of

<a asp-action="Details" asp-controller="Dinners" asp-route-id="@Model.DinnerID">Dinner Details</a>

you can write (after registering Sg4Mvc tag helpers in _ViewImports.cshtml with the directive: @addTagHelper *, Sg4Mvc)

<a mvc-action="MVC.Dinners.Details(Model.DinnerID)">Dinner Details</a>

and that's just the beginning!
