I'm currently an iOS developer and i have to learn .NET for work. It's a fucking mess of an environment. Everything I try to learn seems to be outdated. smh

Maybe i'm not using the correct resources. Any suggestions?

I'm just trying to learn the environment. All of the tutorial and projects i try to build are outdated. I'm using visual studio 2013.

@franchise099 use the MSDN documentation pages (they mention what had been deprecated and what replaced it) and a current version of visual studio... 2013 is two releases behind

Thanks i'll try that. The thing is my company is using visual studio 2013. Not sure if the newer version are backwards compatible.

I'm doing all kinds of stuff with it in the near future. i've never touched this a day in my life. It shall be interesting. I actually just got something to compile correctly so i don't feel as bad towards .net. for now lol

Try not to catch Mono

Wait until you learn LINQ, entity framework is soooo much easier and nicer than core data.
Hint: Use Newtonjson for handling API responses, one of the best json parsers out there
