.NET
Microsoft's open-source platform for building web, desktop and cloud applications.
How we use .NET
.NET is Microsoft’s open-source platform for building web applications, APIs, desktop software and cloud services, mainly in the C# language. It is widely used in enterprises, especially organisations that already run Microsoft technologies and Azure.
How we use .NET
- Integrating websites and apps with existing .NET systems through APIs.
- Maintaining and extending ASP.NET web applications and APIs.
- Migrating older .NET Framework applications towards modern, cross-platform .NET.
- Deploying .NET services on Azure with CI/CD pipelines and monitoring.
When .NET is the right choice
.NET is a sensible choice when your organisation already uses Microsoft tools, has .NET developers in-house or needs deep integration with Azure and Microsoft 365. For new web projects without that context, we often recommend Laravel or Node.js for faster delivery and lower hosting costs.

Frequently asked questions
Can a .NET system work with a PHP or JavaScript website?
Yes. Systems communicate through APIs regardless of language. We often connect WordPress, Shopify or React front ends to existing .NET services.
Should we rewrite our old .NET application?
Not always. Often the safest path is to upgrade the platform gradually, add tests and replace parts step by step. We assess the codebase and recommend the lowest-risk route.
Can you host a .NET application on Linux?
Yes. Modern .NET is cross-platform, so applications can run on Linux servers and containers, which often lowers hosting costs compared with Windows servers.
