by Microsoft as part of its .NET framework. Launched in 2000, C# has since become
one of the most popular languages for developing a wide range of software
applications, from desktop applications to web services and games.
One of the key features of C# is its integration with the .NET framework, which
provides a vast library of pre-built functions and tools for developers to
leverage. This includes everything from database access and networking to graphical
user interface (GUI) development and cryptography.
In recent years, C# has seen significant adoption in the game development industry,
thanks in part to the popularity of the Unity game engine, which uses C# as its
primary scripting language. This has led to the creation of countless successful
games across multiple platforms, from mobile devices to consoles and PC.
C# is also widely used for building web applications, particularly with the
introduction of ASP.NET Core, a cross-platform, high-performance framework for
building modern web applications and services. With ASP.NET Core, developers can
create scalable, secure web applications using familiar C# syntax and tools.
