Depends on how you learn. Some learn by being around others, social interaction, asking questions and absorbing knowledge. It's clear you fall into the latter category which likes to learn by diving right into the code, so here it is:
.NET CLR Managed Runtime - https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr
.NET Framework - https://github.com/dotnet/corefx https://github.com/dotnet/corefx
.NET Compiler as a Service ("Roslyn") - https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn
.NET Orleans Actor Framework - https://github.com/dotnet/orleans https://github.com/dotnet/orleans
Mono Framework - https://github.com/mono/mono https://github.com/mono/mono
Xamarin iOS, Watch, Mac Bindings and Framework -
https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-macios
Xamarin Android Bindings and Framework - https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-android https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-android

- the-dude 11y agoYou seem to be dodging the question. The question is why -you- are linking to gitter.
- rattray 11y agoPresumably, they prefer to learn by talking to people rather than browsing repos. The .NET community was, until recently, decidedly not-open-source, so the learning workflow of "open the repo, read the readme, browse the code" might be a new thing for them.
- wagglycocks 11y agoHe's obviously a shill for big chatroom

- NicoJuicy 11y agoLosen up, linking to something may be subjective. If it's not correct, HN mods can change the URL ;) Perhaps it's not a bad idea for widening the community ( linking to gitter). I'm actually wondering if they ever used jabber, a not-well-known community for chatting about .net
- ChrisClark 11y agoHe answered it, he linked to gitter because he assumed people wanted a social link instead. He's not dodging the question at all, he answered it directly. He obviously likes gitter and chatting with others.
- chris_wot 11y agoI don't see that response as dodging anything. He did answer the question - he think that chatting is a decent way for newbies to learn. You or I may not fully agree, but this is subjective. And it's an answer, even if it might not satisfy you!
- geofft 11y agoUsually what I look for is a description of the project. I don't know what an "Orleans Actor Framework" is. The GitHub link gives me a README with a description and links to examples. The Gitter link is a bunch of people who already know about the project talking about details of it, which is harder to learn from I think. (Right now there are people comparing it with "SF". Not sure what that is.) If there were something like Gitter that showed README.md and the chat room and not the code, then yeah, that's probably a better home page.
- MichaelGG 11y agoCertainly you'd want to peruse the README before asking questions in a chat?
- disremembered 11y ago> Some learn by being around others, social interaction, asking questions and absorbing knowledge. It's clear you fall into the latter category which likes to learn by diving right into the code, so here it is Props for how you dealt with negative feedback in this thread, and this positive re-frame.
