Hey there! 👋

Welcome to our C# community on Lemmy! We’re a group of programmers, hobbyists, and learners all keen about C#. Whether you’re a pro or just getting started, we’re excited to have you here.

Our goal? To learn, share, and collaborate on everything C#. Got questions, projects, or resources to share? Or simply want to discuss a feature you love (or not) about C#? This is your space!

Here are a few ground rules:

  1. Be respectful and considerate: Remember, we’re all at different stages in our C# journey.

  2. Stay on topic: Let’s keep discussions C# focused.

  3. No spamming or self-promotion: Share your projects, but don’t overdo the self-promotion.

  4. Use appropriate language: No offensive language. Let’s keep it positive!

So, let’s dotnet build and Nuget Unable to resolve dependency

Cheers!

      C# has become a very viable option in recent years with the change to .net core. Previously, you were pretty much locked into developing for windows. Now, you’re able to publish the same code on most platforms, and you don’t even have to install the runtime prior to publishing.

      C# is strong in object oriented, but it’s a viable option for non-OOP uses now as well. Imo, it’s one of the better “general purpose” languages, and it has really good documentation from Microsoft if you want to get deep into the weeds.

      Especially since .net6, it’s very easy to pick up due to the reduced boilerplate code needed. But for the best beginner experience, I’d recommend getting Visual Studio (not vs code) and following Tim Corey’s series on YouTube.

      .NET i used in tons of companies, I don’t see it being a hurdle to getting a job at all.

      I see a fair amount of jobs with it on LinkedIn here in the UK, though I haven’t worked with it for a few years now it seems a popular language in enterprise.

      C# is the language used by the Unity game engine, as well as an option when developing with the Godot game engine. It’s also a common language when building tools that support game developers outside the game engine! So yeah, it’s a useful language!

      What are your goals? Do you already have a coding background?

    Hey thanks for the community! I’ve been in love with C# for a while. Right now I mainly use it for my hobby game development (Godot with dotnet 6), but hoping to get a proper career soon. I’m excited to see what kinds of cool C# things people will share!
