Why would anyone want .NET on Linux?
- jeremycarter 6mo agoHundreds of thousands of .NET applications run inside Linux Docker containers.
- dardeaup 6mo agoMy guess would be so that they could make use of a single code base.
- orthoxerox 6mo agoOrgs that have their LOB software written in .NET and want to migrate to Linux without rewriting it. Avalonia's commercial offering is designed to do exactly that.
- drzaiusx11 6mo agoC# is cross platform, I'd bet money that most .Net services run on Linux these days (Azure runs more Linux VMs than Windows VMs after all) This just fills the client side gap so you can unify the full stack under one language a la node etc
- DeathArrow 6mo agoAt work we have over ten major products written in .NET and running as Linux containers in the Cloud.
- bigstrat2003 6mo agoBecause .net is a good set of libraries, C# is a really nice language to program in, and because having cross platform software under the same code base is a good thing.
