How to develop Frontend under C# .NET?

Question

JavaScript

Hello!
There was such a situation at work. There is a web application on ExtJS 4.2 + PHP + MySQL. We want to remake it, because does not suit the interface and needs a link to the aksapty tables (because PHP cannot connect to such tables).
For the backend, we will take C# as the main language (because there is a special web connector there).
For the frontend, it's JS + HTML + CSS. But here a problem arises: it is necessary to choose a framework that would speed up the development of the interface. So far the most popular is DevExpress, but it's pricey.
Does anyone know other options?

Answer 1

I write everything by hand, without frameworks.
But a couple of times I had to modify projects that used Angular.js. A nasty thing, but as I was told, it helps to quickly make the UI.

Answer 2

You have a little mess in your head. DevExpress is for Asp.net Forms technology, and there is also Asp.net MVC. Figure out what you need first. And there and there they use various js - Frameworks. Same bootstrap. JS is also used by Asp.net forms - but there the basis of UI development is a set of controls that DevExpress supplies. It turns out to develop quickly, but the quality of the layout is lame

Answer 3

KendoUI. But it is also paid (1k bucks for a license for 1 developer)
