Microsoft .NET

The .NET developers and program managers at Microsoft work to maintain and enhance .NET with the community. .NET is a cross-platform, open-source development platform that allows you to use multiple languages, editors, and libraries to build for web, mobile, desktop, gaming, and IoT. .NET is designed to be general purpose, so that once a developer learns how to build one type of application, they can quickly build other types of applications for different workloads; developer skills can easily transfer to other domains using the same languages and libraries. .NET enables developers to be more productive building feature-rich applications of any type, for any device, with great performance.
