Now before I dive too far into this this question, I am aware of nDjango and MonoRail; however, those project seem to be lacking.
What I'm wondering is if there is a solution out in the .Net world that has the following features out of a single box like Rails has in Ruby or Django has for Python. I know tools that do pieces but am curious if there's 1 unified solution out there.
There's lots of options that cover one or more of these aspects but is there something in .Net that covers all of them?
Thanks

In the battle of Django vs Ruby on Rails performance, it is observed that Rails is faster by 0.7%. It is because Rails has the advantage of a rich repository of amazing libraries and plugins to enhance the speed and eventually the performance of this framework.
Both Ruby on Rails and Django are long-lived web development frameworks, but they are still two of the most preferred. They share a lot of similarities, but each is unique in its own way. Their resemblances revolve around the fact that both programming languages are dynamic and object-oriented.
In general, Django is easier to start than ASP.NET. Simplicity is one of rules in Python's Zen. Also Django explicitly shows you all control flow, so you can understand internals of framework very quickly.
Popularity. According to Stackoverflow 2021 Developer Survey, developers choose Ruby and Rails 6.75% and 7.04% times among languages and web frameworks respectively. Ruby and Rails was very popular in the early 2000s and 2010s.
I have not yet found a solution as you have described, but as you know there are bits and pieces that could be used together to provide a stack that is close:
This would provide a stack that is .NET and not another ecosystem sitting on top of a .NET substrate.

You can actually run Rails under the .NET DLR. This allows you to not only access the feature set Rails provides, but also everything else which is available in the .NET ecosystem.
I haven't found a one click installer which gives me everything on your list, but, as you say, I have found excellent solutions for each point on your list which integrate well.

I'm honestly not sure how close this gets you, but S#arp Architecture seems to be trying to cover a lot of this ground in a single package.
