Why C# and .NET Framework?
Microsoft is one of the industry leaders
.NET Framework and C# are the primary
development technologies in the MS ecosystem
The C# language
Contemporary object-oriented language
Widespread and very popular
Easy to learn
Most Telerik products target the .NET platform
28

Why English?
Why the slides are in English?
English is the native language of the software
engineers
Forget about not learning it!
Specific terminology is better
not to be translated
