You really should google before you make remarks... I'm also going to ignore the widely distributed remark because it is ridiculous. > No-one's writing a database server RavenDB, which can be run in a cluster, and uses less CPU (and I've read memory) than MongoDB itself. There's also a recent C# based redis drop-in replacement that outperforms redis. See more: https://github.com/quozd/awesome-dotnet?tab=readme-ov-file#d... As for identity, you sound really silly when you consider it is literally built-in to ASP .NET itself, and can be expanded upon to your hearts desire, plus there's no shortage of available identity management libraries in C#. As for source code repository, I'm not sure what you mean, but for years Microsoft hosted CodePlex which was essentially GitHub for C# projects. Visual Studio and C# projects are typically hosted o

You're telling me Microsoft has 0 BI tooling and SDKs? Come on. As for a linter, you are either trolling, or just blindly hate Microsoft for no rhyme or reason, there's more than enough linters, especially the best one of all, ReSharper, which is integrated into Rider which is a cross-platform IDE. There's also MonoDevelop, SharpDevelop, etc I literally spent a few weeks ago porting a .NET 3.5 app I hadn't touched in years, to .NET 8 from Ubuntu Linux, and got it running, in under 30 minutes in Project Rider. Also nearly forgot. Netflix's original web UI was Silverlight, which is C# / .NET back when it was at its peak for its time.
