It's bad enough when you've got constantly changing "best practices" from MS so the thing you wrote last year doesn't look anything structurally like what you're doing now.

And all the 6-month-old on-line docs and tutorials aren't only useless, but time wasting.

So you don't like .NET, that's fine. I'm not saying everyone needs to use .NET. I'm saying pick one thing and stick with it.

That said I think you're exaggerating those complaints, the docs for C# are quite good imo and I've been working with ASP.NET web apps for half a decade so far and I'm not seeing any problems like you're describing.

Maybe you're miffed about the Framework to Core/.NET switch? That was a bit of a doozy but the ecosystem is so much better for it I'd say it was worth it.

    This is indeed a complete exaggeration.

    • Sorry, I love .NET and have used it from it's rollout back in 2002.

      I'm just fondly remembering the ASP.NET MVC churn or more recently, Azure API whiplash.
