In this post, I will be answering some misconceptions people have about .NET.

🔣 Is .NET only for Windows?
No, dotnet is now cross-platform. Initially, dotnet was developed by Microsoft primarily for Windows, but over the years, it has evolved into a cross-platform framework. With every version upgrade, the cross-platform capability keeps on getting better.

🔣 Is .NET the same as .NET Framework?
No, dotnet (formerly dotnet core) is the modern, cross-platform successor to .NET Framework, which was Windows-only and not cross-platform.

🔣 Is .NET open-source?
Yes, it is not longer a closed-source under Microsoft. While Microsoft is still a sponsor, it has got a significant number of outside and community contributors.

🔣 Can I use .NET for mobile app development?
Yes, you can use dotnet MAUI, Uno Platform and some others to develop native mobile applications for both iOS and Android.

🔣 Is learning .NET only useful for web development?
No, dotnet is a versatile ecosystem used for developing web (Blazor, asp.net,...), desktop (Avalonia, Uno, WPF,...), mobile, cloud, IoT, and gaming (Unity, Godot,...) applications, making it a valuable skill for various development needs.

🔣 Do I need Visual Studio to develop with .NET?
No, while Visual Studio is a popular choice, you can also use Visual Studio Code, JetBrains Rider, or even command-line tools for .NET development. I personally prefer Rider.

🔣 Can .NET applications run on Linux servers?
Yes, .NET applications can run natively on Linux servers. You just need to install the runtime and sdk, and it will run smoothly like any program/noscript.

🔣 Is .NET well-supported by the community?
Yes, .NET has a large and active community. The reddit & discord servers are always busy and the documentations get updated as soon as their are changes.
Dotnet also has a dedicated YouTube channel where they actively post tutorials of new tools and updates. On every dotnet version upgrade, numerous effective and useful changes happen, and much more is going on in the community.


💡I hope that answers some of your doubts about dotnet. If you have questions, let me know in the comments!
