Abstract
.NET is 20 years old, having been introduced in 2002 with the release of the .NET Framework, .NET 1. Since then, it has evolved with the needs of the computing industry to become even faster, lightweight, and cross-platform. As I write this book, we are at a crossroads, if you will, of the original .NET Framework and the newer .NET Core framework coming together under one new .NET. Microsoft has recently released .NET 5 and soon (as there is now an annual release) .NET 6, and with it, you can build powerful web applications with ASP.NET Core 6.
