ASP.NET Core 2.0 recently released and, with it, came some new templates, including new project templates for single-page applications (SPA) served from an ASP.NET Core backend. These templates make it easy to setup a web application with a rich JavaScript frontend and powerful ASP.NET Core backend. Even better, the templates enable server-side prerendering so the JavaScript front-end is already rendered and ready to display when users first arrive at your web app.
