MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO AND THE .NET FRAMEWORK
Visual Studio and the .Net Framework are Microsoft’s flagship software development platforms for building fast, reliable and flexible solutions. Applications based on the .Net platform can leverage an unprecedented number of built-in libraries that can perform common tasks, allowing the developer to focus on adding business value rather than having to write library features from scratch.
The .Net Framework provides features to create traditional Windows applications that are installed and run on each user’s desktop machine, and also incorporates ASP.NET - a comprehensive web server platform that allows development of rich interactive Intranet-based and Internet-based applications.
