🔷 Introduction to C#

C# (pronounced "C-sharp") is a modern, object-oriented programming language developed by Microsoft. It was introduced in the early 2000s as part of the .NET initiative and is designed for building a wide range of applications, from desktop software to web services and games.

C# combines the power of C++ with the simplicity of Visual Basic, making it an accessible yet powerful language. It supports features like strong type checking, garbage collection, and versioning, which contribute to safer and more reliable code.

As a part of the .NET ecosystem, C# allows developers to build applications that can run on various platforms, especially with the introduction of .NET Core and .NET 5/6+. Its syntax is clean and closely resembles languages like Java and C++, making it easier for programmers familiar with those languages to adopt C# quickly.

Whether you're creating enterprise applications, working on backend web development, or building cross-platform mobile apps using Xamarin, C# offers the tools and capabilities needed to deliver robust and scalable solutions.
