Classic ASP, reimagined for speed and scale.
AxonASP 2.1 delivers the familiar Classic ASP development model with a dramatically faster execution core. Keep your proven business logic, move to modern infrastructure, and ship new modules with confidence.
Live runtime showcase: the AxonASP Manual is served
directly by AxonASP 2.1 in real
production style from a Linux server.
Built for legacy continuity and modern growth
AxonASP 2.1 is not an incremental patch. It is an architectural leap designed to keep Classic ASP productive in current cloud and on-prem environments.
AxonLive Framework
Introducing a high-performance Reactive Component Framework. AxonLive empowers developers to create dynamic, stateful, and highly responsive web applications without full page reloads.
Dual-language engine
Run VBScript and JavaScript (with ES6 support) concomitantly. Leverage the best of both worlds in a single, unified runtime.
Selective Library Compilation
Enable or disable specific libraries during compilation, allowing for leaner builds and reduced overhead tailored to your project needs.
Direct bytecode runtime
The single-pass compiler (VBScript) and AST-based compiler (JavaScript) emit bytecode directly for a high-performance stack VM.
Experimental WASM Engine
Explore the future of web execution with our experimental WebAssembly engine, bringing near-native speed to the browser.
IIS-style VM lifecycle
Built-in VM pooling, script caching, and eval caching provide stable performance under high request concurrency.
Modern Developer Experience
Modernize your ASP with console.log for debugging and the
AxonASP TestSuite for continuous integration.
Centralized configuration
Configure server behavior through axonasp.toml with practical support for
.env values.
CLI and automation support
Run scripts from terminal workflows for background jobs, maintenance tasks, and operational automation.
Production value beyond web serving
Integrated test flow
The axonasp-testsuite executable discovers and runs ASP tests with CI-friendly
reporting and reliable exit codes.
Database migration support
Accelerate transitions from legacy Windows environments with tooling available at
/www/database-convert/.
Reference architectures included
Start from real patterns for REST, MVC, and service-style Classic ASP implementations.
Container-first deployment options
Use the provided Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml to launch
quickly and scale with confidence.
