About:
The .NET SDK provides a comprehensive set of tools for building, testing, and deploying modern applications across multiple platforms. It includes the .NET runtime, libraries, and compiler (Roslyn) for developing with C#, F#, or Visual Basic. This version supports building high-performance cloud-native services, desktop apps, and interactive web experiences.

Key Features:

Cross-platform development (Windows, macOS, Linux)
High-performance runtime with JIT/AOT compilation
Unified ecosystem for web, cloud, desktop, and mobile
Modern language features (C# 13, F# 9)
Built-in tools for packaging and deployment

Use Cases:

Building cloud-native microservices and APIs
Creating cross-platform desktop applications

Scripting and automation tasks

Alternatives:

dotnet@8 – Previous LTS version with longer support window but fewer latest language features
node – JavaScript runtime focused on web services, lacks .NET's strong typing and multi-platform desktop capabilities
