YARP stands for “YARP: A Reverse Proxy” is a project to create a reverse proxy server.

YARP fills into the ASP.NET pipeline for managing incoming requests and then has its sub-pipeline for implementing the steps to proxy the requests to backend servers.

For the specific need of different deployment scenarios, YARP can be easily customized and tweaked.

Getting started with YARP

YARP library provides the core proxy functionality that you can then customize by adding or replacing modules.

For a current preview, the NuGet manager supplies the YARP package. Later on, Microsoft has planned to introduce it as a project template accessible via the dotnet command line.

YARP is currently compatible with either .NET Core 3.1 or .NET 5 preview 4 (or latest).
