Why we're excited about .NET Core – and why you should be too
As you can see from the photo, we've had a lot of fun days teaching our .NET Core course all over Australia.
.NET has been around since 2002 for the initial release. When it came around it was really revolutionary and we've been loving .NET ever since. SSW has built thousands of apps over the last 15 years on .NET and the language and tooling have improved with each release.
This new version, called .NET Core, is a generational change. It is a major rewrite that solves a number of issues.
Let me tell you the 4 amazing benefits (in my order):
1. Performance
It's 2,300% faster.
Keep reading to find why .NET Core is so fast - and what some of the other benefits are to using .NET Core.
