I don't think the MS stack is going anywhere. It's true that startups tend to avoid MS due to the (real or perceived) high upfront costs and its general lowness on the hipster curve, but once you look outside of SF/Bay Area it normalizes out, and you'll find plenty of .NET/C# jobs at tech/software companies in whatever city.
- guu 8y agoNow that .NET Core exists, it is possible to develop on the .NET stack without licensing fees (By hosting on Linux and using an open source database) or using a third party implementation (Mono). It remains to be seen whether this will help it gain traction with more companies or not though.
- paulie_a 8y agoYeah but why bother? Unless you have some legacy code and are forced to use c# I wouldn't waste my time anything Microsoft.
