Golang is often the default now. As someone who’s new to backend development, I’ve been exploring C# and can’t understand why it’s not the default. I think C# primarily has a marketing problem.

The name ".NET" feels like it's from another era.

I think they would have done themselves a favor had they just rebranded as `dot`.

`dot build`

`dot run`

`dot publish`

`dot test`

Waaaaay better
