I Tried C#

[freddiebutterfield]

Learnt C# in school for about two years, then once I went to University they taught us Java. The entire time I was looking at the syntax for Java and going "This was so much easier in C#"

I have been a C# developer since 2015ish and I find myself continually coming back to the language. Such a joy to program in, in my opinion.

The C# ecosystem is gargantuan. People wrongly believe it is Microsoft-owned propietary software for Windows only. On the other hand, it is entirely X-Plat and Microsoft engaages its entire OS community and updates the langauge regularly with correct, robust, and very powerful features and frameworks.

everyone hates C# until they try it and realise it’s really good

I love C# because it is easy, powerful and has a huge ecosystem, meaning you can do everything you want in it. There are even parser libraries (ANTLR being a notable example) and OS Frameworks (I think it’s called Cosmos)

As someone who has used Java, C# was like Java but without the pain and suffering.

I got into programming by making mods for Minecraft back in the day, so going from Java -> C# was relatively painless. As I dug deeper I found so many little things that I loved about C# that I never knew I was missing in Java. Operator overloading, out variables, delegates, and ref keyword are ones that I've found very useful. I'm sure there's tons more buried in the ecosystem that I'm yet to discover but overall I find it fantastic. I'm not a professional in any capacity and so I'm still wrapping my head around lower level programming concepts, which has made learning Rust for instance a pretty long slog. C# to me is that perfect mix of power and ease of use.

C# Is just much better compared to java. They have done extensive work over the past few years not only making the language itself more expressive, but also making the runtime much faster. I love it!

I only discovered your channel a couple of days ago but I've really enjoyed binge watching all of your videos! Keep up the good work, mate!

[KanashimiMusic]

I always love seeing people getting introduced to C#. It's so great.

[fidgetymouse]

C# is quite nice. From what I know it was designed to basically be a better version of Java with more extensive frameworks and operated by microsoft.

[DKaldes]

I've been using C# as my primary programming language for the past year and is for sure the language I know the most, I love it; I can do everything I want with it and the language keeps getting faster and faster with every new update + I personally find the C# syntax and coding conventions to be the best of all languages.

I nearly passed out when I saw dynamic.
If a type is dynamic, the compiler doesn't care what you do to it. So you can write absolute jibberish that means nothing and shouldn't compile, but it will compile anyway.

If you are unsure about the type that gets returned, or you don't care for specifically specifying the type, use the var keyword

Shoutout to anyone that started coding with BASIC, Visual Basic 6, or Delphi. You will all be remembered!

[ethanrushbrook]

I've been gunning at C# for the past 8 years and its my main language. You can into some issues (without realizing) that I thought were very interesting that I havne't seen before and took an approach to some of your code that reminded me of myself back in the day. I had a good laugh watcing this one!

[miskbalder]

C# is just lovely, everything is so intuitive and organized

[jonasproton]

My main programming language is C++ but I also have used Java for a few years and always when using C# it feels like heaven. Like fr the languages syntax feels so good everytime I use it I feel like I fluently speak C# if you know what I mean because I have a scope and everything I expect from the language it does exactly like I expect it.

[hrantelmayan]

Yeah C# is really amazing and easy, i learned it as my first language years ago and still use it to this day for most of my projects. You can create projects really easily and quickly its unreal!

[woofcaptain]

I was a long time java dev and the switch to c# for a lot of my projects made me realize how many problems java has that I just lived with. Operator overloads are so amazing!

[CRBarchager]

0:14 It's the other way around. It's TypeScript that is a lot like C# as TS is derived from C# and created by the same guy too, Anders Hejlsberg.
