The Asp.net Core 2.0 Environment for NodeJs Developers

This article will show you where they are similar – the 10,000 feet view – when using the Asp.net Core 2.0 environment. With NodeJs, as the developer you might have chosen to build a web server or a cli tool. Your favorite interactive development environment (IDE) might just be a terminal window or Google Chrome DevTools. With Asp.net (not .Net Core), Microsoft provided the web server ( IIS ) and the IDE ( Visual Studio ). You can develop many different applications including web sites and cli tools.

For this article, I'm going to ignore all issues that would make the comparison apples to oranges and instead focus on issues that make the comparison apples to apples. Moving forward, any reference to Asp.net Core 2.0 will be just . Net Core . NodeJs 6.9.1 will be just No...
