SignalR and Akka.NET

This is an example of how to use Akka.NET, SignalR and ASP.Net Core (on the 461 framework) together. It accompanies this blog post.

Usage:

You should be able to run this just from the command line if you have Node and Dotnet Core installed, but otherwise you'll need VS2015 or greater:

• Install Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 and/or DotNet Core 1.1.

• Install Node. I'm using 6.9.5.

• Optionally install the Node extension for Visual Studio

> cd src\Web
> npm install
> npm run start

Then in another console:

> cd src\EchoAPI
> dotnet restore
> dotnet run

In a browser, navigate to http://localhost:3000/. It connects on startup, so reloading the page will retry the connection to SignalR.
