I have to implement a back office section that will need to maintain complex data with full CRUD and complex joins, pivot grids, etc. I have the Custom Tables in my Umbraco database and I can use them with full CRUD and I have the controls that I will be using which are Razor server side controls. The problem that I am having is that I cannot figure out how, or if possible to use controllers and Razor views in the backoffice custom section.
I have successfully created a section and a tree and an .html page when the tree node is clicked on. This all works great, but unfortunately I cannot find a way to use razor pages in the section. I have implemented an iframe successfully, but that really isn't the way that I wanted to go.
Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated. Thanks so much in advance.

My advice would be to implement in Angular.

However it is possible to render razor in the backoffice creating custom trees
