The .NET Framework is a programming paradigm that enables the creation and execution of software programs for Microsoft Windows, Windows Server, Windows Phone, Microsoft Azure, and XML Web services. Microsoft created it, and it is based on Microsoft’s Windows operating system. The .NET Framework consists of the Framework Class Library (FCL) and the Common Language Runtime (CLR), which provide language support for a wide range of computer languages.
It created this Framework to address several application development challenges, including lengthy development periods, the difficulty of updating programs rapidly, the high total cost of ownership of software, and simplicity of deployment.
