DotNet Languages list

Wednesday, 16 August 2006

Here is a list of programming languages which run on the Microsoft DotNet Common Language Runtime (.Net CLR). Currently (Dec 2005), it comprises less than 30 languages. This is in contrast to languages implementations on the JVM, which number 160. No doubt the gap will start to narrow as the Microsoft.NET platform matures.
