Deep dives
History of .NET Framework
.NET Framework was released in 2000-2002 as a collection of APIs for Windows development, emphasizing rapid application development. It received updates, with the current stable release being 4.7.2. It was primarily aimed at developers using C#, VB.NET, and later F#. However, for non-Windows users, a project called Mono was started, which aimed to create a cross-platform reimplementaion of .NET Framework. Additionally, Xamarin was created to allow cross-platform UI development.
