## What it is
Serenity is an ASP.NET Core / TypeScript application platform for building data-centric business applications with a service-based architecture. It combines code generation (Sergen), an ORM-like data access layer, CRUD scaffolding, and responsive admin UI components to reduce boilerplate in line-of-business apps.

## Use cases
- build admin panels and dashboards with asp.net core
- generate crud screens from database tables
- create line-of-business web applications quickly
- build multi-tenant enterprise applications
- scaffold data entry forms and datagrids in typescript
- create an admin dashboard with user and role management

## When to choose
- building data-centric business or admin applications on .NET
- you want code generation and scaffolding to avoid repetitive CRUD code
- you need built-in localization, multi-tenancy, and authorization patterns
- you prefer a full-stack C#/TypeScript framework with responsive UI out of the box

## When to avoid
- building a lightweight API-only backend without UI
- using a stack other than .NET/TypeScript
- you need a microservices or serverless-first architecture
- you want full control over frontend framework choice like React or Vue

## Facets
