It's even worse, since they dropped the core now and just call it .NET. So searching has become even more of a pain. It's also pretty much a mess, because many things were different between the versions. So let's say you google how to do something and the result could be: - .NET Framework - .NET core 1 - .NET core 2 - .NET core 2.1 - .NET core 3 - .NET 5+ Many times there will be no clear indication what version the result was built on. On stackoverflow, answers sometimes include all versions varieties.
