Export to pdf using ASP.NET 5

Question

I am working on MVC 6 application(DNX Core 5.0 framework). Unfortunately, I don\'t find any library for pdf export.

Any help will be appreciated.

I know that this question was asked a while ago, and I know that there have been several answers provided already that may well be right for certain projects. But I recently created a GitHub repository that allows for the creation of PDFs directly from your C# code without any requirement for nodejs, javascript, or razor. The feature set is a bit limited at the moment but it generates PDFs with images (.jpg only at this stage), shapes, and formatted text. The library works with .net core 2.0 and has no dependency on any other PDF generation tool.

Please note that this is my own repository: https://github.com/GZidar/CorePDF

I do plan to add functionality over time but at least for now this may provide the basis for others to include simple PDF capability in their own projects without the need for additional tooling.
