What makes .NET Core so special?

.NET Core is a free, cross platform, high performance, sophisticated open-source successor to .NET framework. It can be used for a wide variety of operating systems without requiring expensive Windows licenses. Since the costs associated with proprietary Windows licenses are mitigated, a variety of companies have started using it to build their applications.

How .NET Core is extremely versatile

Due to its cross-platform support, developers can use .NET Core for a wide variety of operating systems – LinuxOS, macOS along with WindowsOS. If used with Xamarin, .NET Core makes mobile application development feasible, which includes support for iOS and Android operating systems. .NET Core can be used for the development of cloud applications and can even be used for IoT applications. That way a firm can maximize its ROI (return on investment) when deciding on and purchasing the best development framework to utilize for its application development needs.

Community Support

Since most of the code for the .NET Core system is on GitHub and is managed by Microsoft as well as the open source communities, the platform can be advanced and secured, and can evolve more quickly and efficiently.

Performance and Scalability

Services can be developed more quickly, perform faster in production, and scale better if written using .NET Core. It also helps to lower the number of servers to save the cost of hosting and infrastructure.

Case studies on Microsoft website (https://dotnet.microsoft.com/platform/customers) mention some of the companies and products that are currently using .NET Core and the benefits they found were critical to their businesses. The list includes names like Siemens Healthineers, United Parcel Service (UPS), GoDaddy, Raygun, Stack Overflow.

It is being said that .NET Core is the future of the ecosystem and that programmers should use it for all new development projects.
