Scott I find your presentation style strangely reminiscent of Mr. Rogers. Calm, candid, informative and friendly. Your ability to communicate complex technical subjects in simple layman's terms is amazing. Please don't ever change.
@@Daysra Bob Tabor does a fantastic job explaining information in his C# tutorials. I'd say they're both my favorites when it comes to clear and concise explanation.
9:28 LOL I thought I was the only one who used poop as a placeholder name for classes/variables/etc when I'm just messing around. Glad to see another grown man with an eight year old's sense of humor.
@Abhijit Desai I heard the language was originally called "C cool" but because they had to change its name due to legal reasons, it became "C sharp". I don't think it has anything to do with that, but who knows lol...
Master programmer and master in delivery/presenting as well. Please, dont think about retirement yet Scott, for we still need your mastery for much longer time.
EXCELLENT. Thank you SO MUCH for this very short but very useful explanation! I love the use of "equivalencies" with other programming languages (Java, Node/JS, etc). I wish more polyglottal developers would make more content like this to help experienced developers "cross-pollinate" from "ecosystem to ecosystem" (Java -> MS, TS/JS -> Java, etc - there are endless variations). So once again, THANK YOU! I needed a very fast intro because of a project I'm diving into and this helped immensely!
It is funny how we want to come back to pre OOP times with simple functions. I love classes but the last few years I have been writing a lot static classes with static functions in C#, looking forward to do it in C# 9. Thanks for the preview! :)
C# is a particularly fun language to use. 🙂 Also I'm so happy that I can create platform agnostic software with it. Write once, run everywhere. Using an ultra efficient, non-verbose multiparadigm language that takes functional programming as seriously as everything else. 10/10.
I love these videos from Scott. It's got me back to being a full-time Windows user. All these videos remind me of what Ryan Bates did for Rails and Ruby with Railscasts. Also thanks for the great video on how to set up Windows Terminal on WSL2. Can't wait for more of the C# and .Net stuff.
THANK YOU! I've been looking at people trying to explain this in blogs and such for a bit and nothing really stuck with me. Your comparisons to node/express/npm really helped me understand what .Net is
Had to stop at 6:40~, you're doing a great job! love the use of presentation software, and whatever you've done to your terminal I like that too. I've subscribed and will be checking out your videos. Thanks man
I've been working with .net for 10 years and watched this to learn how to better explain certain things - I learned that and some other new things as well!
I've been a .NET Developer for over a decade but I've heavily depended on Visual Studio. After recently picking up Node and enjoying working with VS Code and Terminal, I'd love to do the same with C#. Please tell me more about the tools you used in this video -- what Terminal is that, how is one tab of it in Linux? What extensions are needed in VS Code? What color theme was that you used?
I come from the future. I was thrown for a loop when you showed the current .net 3.1 LTS is supported until 2022-12-03, which was last month. Time flies when you're a TH-cam video I guess 😂
Thanks for making this video. I've come across a few videos like this that help me in my understanding of C#, since I recently started a course in C# on LinkedIn Learning.
Really good video! - I coming from the linux world and I have to use Microsoft products at work, so there are a lot of things to learn and your video has made some of the things more clear now, so thank you for this!
Great insight, really. But I'm wondering why VB didn't appear in your video title "What is .NET? What is C# and F#?..." and you didn't show a demo with VB... that makes me sad though.
Why is it that I sat through a xamaran presentation in college (from a professor) and never learned it was an open source knock off (so to speak) of .net framework? Thank god for you man!
Thank you for providing a wonderful videos and made us explain wonderful new ecosystem . You are great . I still have your old red hardcover book which I used to refer during my college days
I have 0 experience of coding, as an system administrator. The dot.net/videos is so brilliant, I cannot find an introduction series that is better than this. Thanks Scott, you know EVERYTHING.
.NET has always been very interesting to me.... very on par with java as being somewhere between top & low level languages and very accessible and just a great first environment to get started in getting used to C# back in the day from a C/C++ background was just a treat
It would be fantastic a video where you explain about design patterns, best practices to create an API, best way to create a class and its properties, interfaces, dependency injection... EXCELLENT video by the way.
@@jarrichvdv for that if statement, yes, it wasn't necessary. But when you have like 5 if/else this is just glorious :D same with tuple deconstruction, pick right tool for a problem.
A big breakthrough in my understanding of .NET was when I stopped trying to find any semblance of meaning in the term .NET. "Is it a website ending in .net? Are the file extensions .net? Is it short for network? Is .net a reference to it being web based? Do I pronounce the .? Do I spell out the NET when I say it, N-E-T? Is NET an acronym?" All enormous mental roadblocks in my coming to understand .NET.
I working with .NET since 5 years... (started earlier but what ever). I really love it...but I really struggle with the thought that there is a new version every year. Yes it has LTS...but it'll still be a huge deal for startups or small companies to change the versions all the time. Also I can already see that the docs will become a mess. 3 years, and we have 3 doc entries for 3 versions.... And all interesting articles out there will always run the newest version...which pretty much means that there will be a lack of information on .NET 5 stuff once .NET 6 is out there. It is already hard to get answers to a question sometimes, since google (or StackOverflow) does not manage to sort out answers from 2010.
most important question is what terminal/console is that you're running and how do you get all the pretty colors and what font are you using? :) great video, my brain is continually exploding because of .NET so I need all the videos like this I can find lol
Scott I find your presentation style strangely reminiscent of Mr. Rogers.
Calm, candid, informative and friendly. Your ability to communicate complex technical subjects in simple layman's terms is amazing. Please don't ever change.
I feel the same way. I wish all the programming tutorial videos are done by Scott lol.
im not a programmer, im just browsing the field, i agree too with this statement
That's what I couldn't put my finger on. He has a very Mr. Rogers vibe to him doesn't he? Totally a compliment. Loved that man.
@@Daysra Bob Tabor does a fantastic job explaining information in his C# tutorials. I'd say they're both my favorites when it comes to clear and concise explanation.
Hi
Me at minute 12: "Looking good so far!" ... then after that just got "What tha... Is that really C#!?!?" Completely overwhelmed!! Thanks Scott!
Yeah, I still haven't gotten around to learning to use lamda fully. There is a lot you do there.
Looool Exactly!!!
Give it time and the C# compiler will actually start accepting F# code. :)
9:28 LOL I thought I was the only one who used poop as a placeholder name for classes/variables/etc when I'm just messing around. Glad to see another grown man with an eight year old's sense of humor.
This is the most welcoming presentation to software development I’ve ever seen. If I was just starting it would wipe all fears
I gotta say that this is pretty impressive… not only the way you explain things so clearly but also how simple you make it look like
Scott, the quality stuff you teach is always important to the existing and upcoming devs around the world. Thank you for that.
Yay!
Thanks for that intro to .NET
sudo yay
Abhijit Desai C was a language that was invented a while ago. After c came c++. Then came c#
@Abhijit Desai I heard the language was originally called "C cool" but because they had to change its name due to legal reasons, it became "C sharp". I don't think it has anything to do with that, but who knows lol...
@Abhijit Desai C# = C++++. Hashtag = four plus signs.

Thank you! Coming from web dev using javascript for front and backend, I had no idea what all this stuff was. C# vs .Net vs .Net Core vs ASP, etc etc.
Best 18 mins on. Net which gives clear and straight forward answers. Thanks for the video
I can attest to the 101 videos Scott mentions at 18:15 , fantastic videos.
I love these videos from Scott. It's got me back to being a full-time Windows user. All these videos remind me of what Ryan Bates did for Rails and Ruby with Railscasts. Also thanks for the great video on how to set up Windows Terminal on WSL2.

I’m glad TH-cam suggested this video and I found your channel. Subscribed, and looking forward to going back and watching your videos!
I didn't know Ryan Reynolds did programming videos on youtube.
🤣
He’s just as funny as Ryan Reynolds as well😆
You are quite possibly the most skilled with the keyboard of anyone I can recall in recent memory. It's mesmerizing...
"You don't necessarily have to go looking for a library just because you want to leftpad a string" 🤣
As some one who does not know the first thing about any programing at all, this demystified so many things for me. Ill be following for more!
I have always admire your communication skills, but this time you went ASMR. Fantastic.
Great video.. been in .net since birth, this is the better explanation I've ever heard of the .NET ecosystem.
Mind is absolutely blown by C# 9!!! Wow! Scott Hanselman got me excited about mvc about 10 years ago, here’s he doing it again!
Whenever you say "hello friends", I FEEL that.
THANK YOU! I've been looking at people trying to explain this in blogs and such for a bit and nothing really stuck with me. Your comparisons to node/express/npm really helped me understand what .Net is
This was awesome. I’m the typical coding boot camp alumni 5 years into this career and never knew any of this. Thank you❤
Just started in .NET world 6 months back, this is the best intro. .NET can have. Subscirbed. :)
I have been a .Net programmer for 2 years this is super helpful

As a fellow creator and .Net + C# advocate, I can say your doing a great job.
When I say C#9 I gasped. I am loving it!!!! Thank you for the video, I already loved c# and .NoT Framework, now I love it even more!!
Love this video, had to jump around until I found someone that actually broke it down thankyou!
This is an amazing video. After being a .NET dev around 10 years, now I enjoy "driving the stick" as well.
I think this is the best dotnet explanation on youtube
Your way of explaining things is simply superb.
You are one of the most awesome sir that i meet here in my life!! amazing sir, keep this tracket!! thanks
Coming from Java and Python this was exactly what I needed. Thank You So Much!
Dude thank you for putting this out. I've really never understood what it was until this!

Thats the new windows terminal, you can get it on the windows store.
Certainly the best .net overview I've seen and I've seen a lot!
What a godlike explanation! Also, as a college student coming fresh off learning c++, that c# switch case lambda expression looks like witch-craft.
Thank you, this clarified a lot of question I had
Awesome introduction for me as a java developer to understand all the surroundings. It helped me a lot.
I come from the future.

Man, I'm happy to be a part of this grate eco system)
Day when .net core came out made this platform one of the best.
Thank you, guys, for your work!
The single best video about .NET on the entire Internet.
Great Presentation Scott! I'm starting dotnet at work and your explanation just blew me away. Keep it up
thanks! for the overview!
will start learning C# now with your video tuts on the other channel.
very excited!!!
I love the micro humour in your tutorial, makes it interesting
Microservices and .NET from you would be very welcomed . Your contents are pur gold.Thank a lot scott@goldheart !
Wow. I had no idea you could do all that with .NET. Thank you.
incredibly concise and clear vid thx
Scott, thank you for taking the time. Awesome video!
im a student getting into dotnet for game modding on my own time. seems my practice with sql will serve me well here. great video
Finally the video I’ve been looking for! Thank you 🙏

Nice synopsis. Great job.
Top-notch exposition as usual 👍
Thank you for providing a wonderful videos and made us explain wonderful new ecosystem . You are great . I still have your old red hardcover book which I used to refer during my college days
No that did not suck! The best explanation for a beginner have seen. Thank you, subscribed! I can sense this is a great channel for the way I learn.
Beautiful breakdown.

14:00 Holyshit that code looks alien to me. And I love it
Seriously, would never have been able to convince me that is C#.
Lots of things has changed in c# 8.0.
I'd be pissed if my coworker wrote code like that.
That looks genuinely horrible. It's like they ran a competition on how to make a simple statement look as over-engineered as possible.

Just an awesome explanation before diving into .NET or C#
Appreciate the explanation but mostly I'm impressed by the control of the console, the presentation tools... wow
THIS should be the main video at the dotnet resources page
Thank you for this explanation , it is really high quality and i appreciate it, you are amazing.
Stick shift vs automatic, great analogy
You can be even more "terse" with C#9 like this if you want:
int fib9(int i) => i switch {
1,
_ => fib9(i - 2) + fib9(i - 1)
};
After looking what .Net is this video helped me getting an idea. I don't want to say i really know what .Net is but i have the idea of it.
I was wondering where I knew him from and then I remembered that he was doing that input C-sharp introduction course on the Microsoft learn.
I know it. Notepad is an IDE and PowerPoint-replacement

That coding skills are impressive, i wish you could do a video on how to move that smoothly!!!! a mind blowing
No one does break downs like Scott!
It is a very good introduction. I really like your ability to explain it in simple terms. Thank you.
Finally I understand what .NET is, thanks
Great video. It really helped me get a feel for the ecosystem. Also loved that you drove stick shift!

nice to find out a bit about this. relaxing voice 😌
Another great video Scott! Keep them coming
The highlight for me was when you renamed the namespace to ‘poop’. Thanks Scott!
Best part is that we are a welcoming community!
such a nice video, you helped me sort some things out
