No, the book doesn't really focus on individual libraries (EF, MVC, etc.) as much as it just tries to focus on the language itself. I wanted to drive home the point that if you use C#, you can target all the major platforms :)
- felideon 14y agoThat's great. Focusing on specific MSFT technologies or frameworks is a waste of time. For one, they're not very good. And two, you never know how soon it'll be deprecated. On the other hand, C# the language is not terrible.
- recursive 14y agoMVC seems pretty good.
- CodeCube 14y agoIndeed ... and it is also open source and works on Mono, should you choose to host it on linux/apache - http://aspnetwebstack.codeplex.com/ http://aspnetwebstack.codeplex.com/
- jinushaun 14y agoThe C# community is trying. It's hard to separate C# the language from C# the Microsoft product. People just have it in their minds that you're stuck with the MS tools and libraries. Things like Nancy and Albacore is where C# should be headed.
- felideon 14y agoHow does Nancy (which I had never heard) compare to something like ServiceStack?
