Ars Technica Tours Mono

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the git-some-edumacation dept.

Kevin Francis writes "Over the coming weeks, Ars Technica will be taking a look at Mono, including a basic introduction to Mono, MonoDevelop, and C#, and then branching out to GTK#, database access, ASP.NET, advanced C# topics, and conclude with a discussion of the future of Mono, and the C# standard. All the examples will work on Windows and Linux, with OSX support coming shortly. Part 1 of the series is online now."

    What has always struck me about .net, C#, and okay Java too, is that they're essentially playing catch-up to what's already out there.

    Hehehehe. Know what this reminds me of?

    "Those who don't understand Lisp are condemnded to reinvent it, poorly." (patterned after Henry Spencer's famous observation on Unix)

    I'm seeing that happening all the time =)
