What platform does the .net framework/core runs on?

The .NET platform, including both the .NET Framework and .NET Core, can work on many systems, letting developers create programs that run on different platforms. Here are the platforms supported by .NET:

  1. Windows:
    • The .NET platform has a long history of running on Windows, and it offers strong support for Windows desktop applications, server applications, and services.
    • The .NET Framework is designed primarily for Windows operating systems, including Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10.
    • .NET Core and the latest version of .NET (referred to as ".NET") also support Windows, offering modern application development capabilities with improved performance and cross-platform compatibility.
  2. Linux:
    • Microsoft has made significant advancements in bringing .NET to the Linux platform.
    • .NET Core, which is a cross-platform implementation of .NET, provides excellent support for Linux distributions, including popular ones like Ubuntu, Red Hat, and CentOS.
    • Developers can build and run .NET Core applications on Linux servers, containers, and IoT devices.
  3. macOS:
    • The .NET platform also supports macOS, allowing developers to build and run .NET applications on Apple's macOS operating system.
    • .NET Core has robust support for macOS, enabling developers to create cross-platform applications that run on macOS, Windows, and Linux.
  4. iOS and Android:
    • Xamarin, a part of the .NET platform, allows developers to build native mobile applications for iOS and Android using C# and the .NET framework.
    • Xamarin enables code sharing across multiple platforms, allowing developers to reuse business logic and components while building native user interfaces for each platform.
  5. Web and Cloud:
    • The .NET platform helps with making websites and cloud applications on different systems.
    • ASP.NET, which is a part of the .NET Framework, allows developers to build web applications that run on Windows servers.
    • ASP.NET Core, a cross-platform framework, enables developers to create modern, high-performance web applications that can run on Windows, Linux, and macOS servers.
    • Additionally, .NET has extensive support for cloud development, with integrations for Microsoft Azure, AWS, and other cloud platforms.

It's important to note that the availability of specific features and capabilities may vary across different platforms and versions of .NET. Microsoft has been actively working to provide a unified and cross-platform development experience with the latest ".NET" platform, which encompasses .NET Core, Xamarin, and other components.
