.Net Core is an open-source, cross-platform, and general-purpose development framework from Microsoft. It supports Windows, macOS, and Linux platforms and widely used for developing web, server, cloud, and IoT apps.

.Net Core is the most loved framework by developers according to Stack Overflow Developer Survey 2019.

It’s a subset of .NET Framework and falls under the full-stack category of tools.

It’s a complete rewrite of the ASP.NET framework. Features of .Net Core include multi-platform support, open-source, and flexible environment suitable for modern apps.

Microsoft’s open-source move, vast community support, and over 15 years of stability of the .Net framework helped .Net Core to become developers’ favorite globally.

It was first released in 2016 and is still evolving.

Net Core 3.0, the latest version was released in September 2019.
