Because ASP.NET Core is a framework that is installed with .NET. It isn’t a set of Nuget packages. Why? .NET Core 1.x tried making everything a Nuget package and it was a disaster. ASP.NET is big which meant a huge number of dependencies

It is strange that you couldn't find the empty web template. Every version of ASP.NET Core has come with one. Empty is the first option in the "Create a new ASP.NET Core web application" dialog in VS2019, and "dotnet new

The future of Silverlight and Flash died when mobile phones rejected browser plugins. No amount of good choices from MS/Adobe would change that.

Developer on gRPC for .NET here. gRPC client requires HTTP/2, and HttpClient (the .NET library for making HTTP requests) didn't previously support HTTP/2. The gRPC client actually supports netstandard2.1. Any .NET implementat

.NET always preserves generic type information for reflection but there is code reuse when a generic type is used multiple times with different reference types, e.g. there is little overhead having List<object> and List<string>

You can .NET Native on your own machine for testing but the package uploaded to the store contains MSIL. The final .NET Native version is then compiled in the cloud. https://blogs.windows.com/buildingapps/2015/08&#

UWP apps from the Windows Store already ban JIT compilation - at least for .NET apps. When .NET UWP applications are uploaded the store pre-compiles them on the server with .NET Native. The user only downloads and executes native code.

You probably won't. This is .NET Core only. .NET Core is a cross platform slimmed down version of .NET and doesn't run Winforms or desktop WPF. Windows Store WPF is supported.

No. Currently .NET Native (AOT) is used with WinStore apps - in fact every Win10 .NET application in the store and on your computer HAS to be .NET Native - but the plan is to make compiling a native DLL possible for all .NET Core applicatio
