      In recent years,NET has become a huge ecosystem for creating any kind of applications on the Windows platform. With .NET you can create Windows apps, web services, web applications, and apps for the Microsoft Phone.

      The newest release of .NET is a big change from the last version – maybe the biggest change to .NET since its invention. Much of the .NET code has become open-source code, and you can create applications for other platforms as well.
