# .NET Programming

Interested in doing .<span class="caps">NET</span> development? The resources below are good places to start:

- [http://msdn.microsoft.com](http://msdn.microsoft.com) — This is <span class="caps">THE</span> reference site if you are doing .<span class="caps">NET</span> development.

- [http://www.gotdotnet.com](http://www.gotdotnet.com) — Very useful .<span class="caps">NET</span> resource. I believe many members of the Microsoft .<span class="caps">NET</span> framework team frequent this site, making this an important resource if you are looking for some real expert help.

- Check out the workspaces at [http://www.gotdotnet.com/community/workspaces/](http://www.gotdotnet.com/community/workspaces/). Pretty darn neat. It’s an open source development community for those using .<span class="caps">NET</span>.

- Terrarium ([http://www.gotdotnet.com/workspaces](http://www.gotdotnet.com/workspaces)) — multi-player peer-to-peer .<span class="caps">NET</span> network game. This is not so much a game as it is a training tool for .<span class="caps">NET</span> developers. It’s a great way to learn OO programming and how to work with a framework.

- [http://www.asp.net](http://www.asp.net) — Contains some very useful tools/projects/reference information for <span class="caps">ASP</span>.<span class="caps">NET</span> developers

- <span class="caps">ASP</span>.<span class="caps">NET</span> on Apache webservers: 
    - [http://httpd.apache.org/cli/](http://httpd.apache.org/cli/) — Apache <span class="caps">CLI</span> sub-project (mod\_aspdotnet). Uses the real Microsoft .<span class="caps">NET</span> framework… but this also means that it will only work on Apache 2 on Windows
    - [http://www.mono-project.com/](http://www.mono-project.com/)<span class="caps">ASP</span>.<span class="caps">NET</span> — mono module for Apache; use this to run <span class="caps">ASP</span>.<span class="caps">NET</span> pages on a linux box
