The History of .NET

on YouTube ↗01h 09m

" summary

Chronology and concrete pivots: .NET emerges from separate efforts to build a common language runtime (shipping Feb 2002), a new language C#, and a web runtime to replace ASP; CLR 2.0 (2005) becomes the industrial-strength release when embedded in SQL Server, and .NET 3/3.5 folds WPF/WCF/Workflow in. Silverlight gains traction then collapses after mobile vendors block plugins. Mono leads to Xamarin (mobile C#), and Microsoft open-sources Roslyn and rewrites .NET as .NET Core (1.0 June 2016, 2.0 Aug 2017) to run cross‑platform.
