Getting Started with VB.NET
You can use VB.NET to create three different types of programs:
• Web applications
• Windows applications
• Console applications
The .NET platform is web-centric. The VB.NET language was developed to allow .NET programmers to create very large, powerful, high-quality web applications quickly and easily. The .NET technology for creating web applications is called ASP.NET.
ASP.NET, the next generation from ASP (Active Server Pages), is composed of two Microsoft development technologies: Web Forms and Web Services. While the development of fully realized web applications using these technologies is beyond the scope of this book, learning the basics of the VB.NET language will certainly get you started in the right direction. VB.NET is generally acknowledged to be one of the languages of choice for ASP.NET development.
Typically, you’ll create an ASP.NET application when you want your program to be available to end users on any platform (e.g., Windows, Mac, Unix). By serving your application over the Web, end users can access your program with any browser.
When you want the richness and power of a native application running directly on
the Windows platform, alternatively you might create a desktop-bound Windows application. The .NET tools for building Windows applications are called Windows Forms; a detailed analysis of this technology is also beyond the scope of this book.
However, if you don’t need a GraphicalUser Interface (GUI) and just want to write a simple application that talks to a console window (i.e., what we used to call a DOS box), you might consider creating a console application. This book makes extensive use of console applications to illustrate the basics of the VB.NET language.
Web, Windows, and console applications are described and illustrated in the following pages...
