There are plenty of examples in GitHub for a working skeleton implementing a clean architecture in .NET. However, most of them (if not all) use Entity Framework. Even though, I like EF because it brings a lot of functionality out of the box, I think there are more performant alternatives. One of them is definitely Dapper. Now, this library is a Micro ORM, so it is not expected to have all the functionality as EF. For example: in EF the context provides the unit of work automatically. In Dapper, we have to deal with transactions ourselves. So, I created this simple project to showcase the clean architecture (onion approach) with Dapper using the unit of work. I took some of the ideas from other open source repositories like https://github.com/timschreiber/DapperUnitOfWork, because it is important to dispose the connection and transaction when using dependency injection on disposable objects.

• ASP.NET 5 - Web Api
• Dapper with unit of work for transactions and repository pattern
• Dependency injection
• AutoMapper
• Clean Architecture

I hope this helps ;)
