Kimmax109877yWhat? C# is a language, .NET is just a framework. Build your own framework if you don't like what Microsoft is doing, but I doubt it'll be better. Also you can adapt your opinion to almost everything you use (not necessarily IT related).
Maybe I didn't get your point l, but at the moment that's nonsense to me -
Orionss28867y@Kimmax Effectively, you didn't get the point. I don't have any confusion between a language and a framework. But as you said, making a new framework would be least efficient, so using C# IS using .NET framework.
But .NET Framework, including ASP.NET, Xamarin and others are very heavy, and it seems not adapted to innovation projects.
Is it better said ? -
Orionss28867y@TheNewGuy I'm a student so it will be very general but all that IT startups do like those light applications helping to make little things in life. Not big structures or anything else.
-
TheNewGuy807y@Orionss hmm, I dont get the point
"little things" like whatsapp are not that small
-> and if you talk about startups, they will use whatever they know. They wont hire seniors explicit for c# -
Development in c# is good. I did a few "innovation" projects in it. (cutting stock/ knapsack ) it does have its challenges. You need to keep in mind all the overheads that the framework has.
But it does provide you with loads of tools that can help. I think the .NET platform has some excellent stuff. -
Orionss28867y@esaysimyan I'm currently developing with the .NET framework for my internship, so I can see that's a very good tool but I'm worried about performances, lightness, support, easiness to develop and costs...
-
@Orionss imho its quite easy to develop in. And you have a large community to help. IDE might be a little expensive. Code is always there
-
Orionss28867y@esaysimyan The IDE is not really the problem. I could use Visual Studio Community, but anyway, I have to use IIS servers, and I don't have the choice between buying one or use Azure, which is expensive
-
TheNewGuy807y@Orionss I do work with c#. we use gulp to host the api-Backend.
So I can ensure you that you do not have to use IIS or Azure.
-> there should be even more ways, google is your friend :) -
I think any programming language should be cross platform. Like, why should a programming language define what OS would be the best to use? This is the reason why I never went into C# development, I really am not going to use Windows, sorry, no.
Also, heavily depending on a closed source, proprietary, not that extremely secure operating system which does not play well out of the box with some open standards is not a good idea imo.

In your opinion, should little projects for IT enterprises be developed in C#?
Because in my eyes, The .NET Framework should not be used for innovation - related projects.
It has many qualities like you can do almost anything with it but it's heavy, difficult to adapt and you're really dependent to what Microsoft added in.
question
love c# but fuck it is heavy
