Dot net is a series of efforts for the holy grails of write once, run anywhere (WORA) codes.
It started with C, then Java and then dot net later WORA iteration, albeit it's already more than 20 years old technology, how time flies.
To be fair C is extremely successful in term of popularity (case study Linux), followed by Java (case study Android) and then dot net (case study MAUI), and yet none successfully provides turnkey, seamless and hassle free solution for the WORA codes. This give rise to the joke of "Write Once, Debug Everywhere".
It's most likely that dot net is not going to be the last time people try to invent (or re-invent) WORA codes, so prepare yourself for the next big thing in WORA.
