\n\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t.NET is a platform backed by Microsoft that gives developers the freedom to create several products, from desktop applications to small IoT devices.\u00a0\t<\/h2>\n\n\n\t\tThese products, while different in function, all share a common foundation. This common foundation makes it easy for developers to switch between projects since they have a knowledge set that can be reused.\u00a0

Being backed by Microsoft also means that there are resources dedicated to continuously developing the platform so it doesn\u2019t become outdated. This development also applies to .NET developer tools, which are some of the best.\u00a0\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\t
