The parent comment was talking about Visual Studio itself, not VS Code.
- y4mi 10y agoHeh, yes and he did understand that as well. I actually had to look up the release dates because of your comment :) > Windows Presentation Foundation (or WPF) is a graphical subsystem [...] was initially released as part of .NET Framework 3.0[...]. > .NET Framework 3.0. release date >> 2006-11-06 > Visual Studio Release Date >> First entry on Wikipedia is Visual Studio 97 (1997). It was already Version 5 at that point. So even older I guess. Professionally speaking WPF is still pretty young. Or at least a lot of developers think like that . There is still a lot of Software being maintained in Visual Basic, Windows Forms and whatever previous Frameworks existed. though it is pretty mainstream at this point, so most people just starting with the Microsoft SDKs never touch anything earlier than WPF.
- TomMarius 10y agoFunny, I thought WPF is at least three years younger. Sadly, there are still schools (at least in Europe) that teach Windows Forms exclusively.
