Rate Limiting in ASP.NET MVC

AspNetCore.Unobtrusive.Ajax 

Unobtrusive Ajax Helpers (like MVC5 Ajax.BeignForm and Ajax.ActionLink) for ASP.NET Core 

Features

• Works with Upload file.
• Works with [AntiForgeryTokenValidation].
• Has [AjaxOnly] attribute to limit actions.
• Has httpRequest.IsAjaxRequest() extension method to check request is ajax and decide return PartialView or JSON result.
• Additional overloads for ease of use.
• Adds necessary JS script automatically when you use a Ajax Helpers and remove JS script when you no longer use it (Optional - is by default).
• Uses CDN url instead of Embedded script (Optional - isn't by default).
