You just have to add the line app.UseDefaultFiles(); in startup.cs in Configure method.

public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env)
    {
        app.UseHttpsRedirection();
        app.UseDefaultFiles();     // this line of code.                                  
        app.UseStaticFiles();
        app.UseCookiePolicy();

        app.UseMvc();
    }

as you decribed,the index.html is a staticfile that could be accessed with uri like: https://localhost:5001/index.html, controller is not necessary. If you want to render it in your view,you could try <iframe src=~/index.html></iframe>
