C# Programming Language Guide

Welcome,

Welcome to the world of C# programming, an immersive tutorial is waiting for you.

The C# programming language was designed by Anders Hejlsberg from Microsoft in 2000 and was later approved as an international standard by Ecma (ECMA-334) in 2002 and

ISO/IEC (ISO/IEC 23270) in 2003. Microsoft introduced C# along with .NET Framework and Visual Studio, both of which were closed-source.

At the time, Microsoft had no open-source products. Four years later, in 2004, a free and open-source project called Mono began,

providing a cross-platform compiler and runtime environment for the C# programming language.

A decade later, Microsoft released Visual Studio Code (code editor), Roslyn (compiler), and the unified .NET platform (software framework),

all of which support C# and are free, open-source, and cross-platform. Mono also joined Microsoft but was not merged into .NET.

As of 2021, the most recent version of the language is C# 10.0, which was released in 2021 in .NET 6.0.

This course is going to build up the knowledge for you to create your own C# applications with ease.

The course comes with code examples that you can follow to reproduce the examples in your own environment and deepen your learning experience.

Happy Coding!
