Ivy Examples

Documentation | Samples | Current Sprint | Roadmap | Examples

A comprehensive collection of real-world examples showcasing the power and versatility of the Ivy Framework integrated with popular .NET packages and libraries.

Ivy is the ultimate framework for building internal tools with LLM code generation by unifying front-end and back-end into a single C# codebase. With Ivy, you can build robust internal tools and dashboards using C# and AI assistance based on your existing database.

What is Ivy?

Ivy is a revolutionary web framework that allows you to build interactive web applications using only C# and .NET. No JavaScript, no separate frontend framework - just pure C# from database to UI.

Key Features

• Full-Stack C#: Write your entire application in C#
• LLM Integration: Build applications with AI code generation
• Hot Reload: See changes instantly during development
• Web-First: Deploy anywhere with modern web standards
• Rich UI: Create beautiful, interactive user interfaces
• Responsive: Works seamlessly on desktop and mobile

Examples Collection

This repository contains 50+ working examples that demonstrate how to integrate Ivy with popular .NET packages and libraries. Each example is a complete, runnable application showcasing real-world usage patterns.

Featured Examples

Complete Applications

Some examples go beyond simple demonstrations and showcase complete business applications:

• crm-vc - A full CRM system with 40+ components
• rental-back-office - Property rental management system
• dnsclient - Network diagnostics tool with multiple forms

Quick Start

Prerequisites

• .NET 10.0 SDK or later
• Any code editor (Visual Studio, VS Code, JetBrains Rider)

Running an Example

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Ivy-Interactive/Ivy-Examples.git
   cd Ivy-Examples
   

2. Choose an example (e.g., helloworld):

   cd helloworld
   

3. Restore dependencies:

   dotnet restore
   

4. Run the application:

   dotnet watch
   

5. Open your browser to the URL shown in the terminal (typically http://localhost:5010)

That's it! You now have a running Ivy application.

Docker Support

Most examples include Docker support for easy deployment:

cd <example-name>
docker build -t ivy-example .
docker run -p 5010:5010 ivy-example

One-Click Development Environment

Many examples support GitHub Codespaces for instant development:
