We use .NET Core a lot at work and I actually am starting to like it and its pretty quick for microservices development. Give me some reasons why it shouldnt be used. (No one else is using it is a bad argument)

  • Some of the tools it offers are a bit immature. For example, the “Entity Framework Core” object relational model that replaces Entity Framework 6/7 can still be buggy and lacks a simplistic means for logging the SQL statements it generates.

    Other examples of thorny issues I’ve come across involved reading/writing to Windows file directories from a .NET Core application hosted on Unix hardware and using Windows AD Authentication from .NET Core. Both were more difficult than anticipated and required a work-around.

    • No problem. This isn’t to say .NET Core “sucks”, just that is has to mature still. And, the user base needs to grow to work out all these types of kinks.

      +1 EF Core has some gaps. At my old company we used EF for DB generation and migrations, and Dapper for actual queries. Worked quite well. Overall though Core is solid tech and MSFT is continuing to invest, so I wouldn’t be shy to use it.

    I can't speak much to .NET Core but C# is a GREAT language. I really like it a lot. Ballmer really screwed the pooch back in the day. C# could've been like what java is today. Nadella was definitely needed back then
