Question

Why C# when there is Java?

Moran Shayovitch · Answer

hello For .NET developers who already have their skills in C# it would be a hassle to learn a new language and develop in Java when there are so many tools and frameworks out there that allow you to develop in C#

Vulpes · Answer

C# was designed 5 or 6 years after Java and although it's a similar language in many ways was therefore able to address perceived shortcomings in the latter.. Although performance has been similar C# has therefore had more modern features than Java throughout its history (Java doesn't even have properties!) and this IMO has made it a more attractive proposition for building all kinds of applications. However since Sun Microsystems (the original inventor of Java) was taken over by Oracle Java has started to catch up though whether it will ever do so completely is open to doubt. Java still has an advantage in being available for virtually all platforms and whilst Microsoft C# has been mainly confined to Windows Mono and Xamarin have effectively extended the language's reach to cover other major platforms as well.

Hi C# is a perfect tool to give more opportunity and flexibility with applications easy to use and understand. Java is platform independent and can work in both OS and web environment. Everything is evolving into .NET
