What is .Net Development

In the world of computers, software is just as important as hardware, this is something that Microsoft has understood as the years have passed, ever since the creation of their original operating system they have looked for new ways in order to improve their software and make it more efficient across platforms, not only to users but to developers as well.

The.Net framework was designed with that purpose in mind, this environment is similar to the JavaScript runtime environment in a way that handles program interaction, compilation, security, etc. -- in the past few years the software industry has grown exponentially, the more the user needs and wants to do with their computers they higher the demand is for software applications which meet those expectations.

Due to this accelerated growth Microsoft has focused on platform independence as well as network transparency, in order for this environment to be completely updated it needs to work across different hardware without major problems, this includes desktops and servers at the same time. The .Net environment provides many advantages to software developers who want to produce applications without having to worry about programming language and hardware capabilities, in order to meet his requirements .Net uses what is called a "Common Language Runtime" or CLR.

The .Net framework provides a necessary class library with all the objects needed to develop applications using any programming language with a non-graphical user interface or with a graphical user interface, also known as GUI, this framework is also capable of using the latest innovations provided by technologies such as ASP.Net and even Web applications based on XML services.

Since this framework is so flexible, programmers tend to use it in order to code their applications, programming languages such as C++, C#, Visual Basic, J++.net and even Delphi are popular languages which can be handled by the .Net framework however, it is not limited to only these languages because it has been developed to provide language independence as well as interoperability and security.

As more and more users demand special applications to operate their hardware, software developers and the programming industry as a whole will constantly be on demand which is why .Net software development has
