从PHP到ASP.net/C#？

Question

I know this may seem like a common question on SO but I could not really find anything in particular to my exact question.

Just throwing some of my thoughts so far out there, PHP is super super easy and FAST to code in, I do not know C# or how to use ASP.net, I would like to learn it and studying some of it briefly it seems to me that it takes a lot more coding and time to code the same result in ASP.net

So I am just curious is there any noticable benefits of having for example a social network in ASP.net vs having it in PHP? Not looking for a debate but I need some guidance

Hopefully this is not to broad of a question, I couldn't really put it into words exactly how I wanted at the moment

Answer 1

I converted to ASP.NET C# around 2 years ago and never looked back!

I love C# and ASP.NET ...For me it just allows me to get on with things, eg a gridview control to render result from the database without me having to manually construct it via table tags.

ASP.NET also has the repeater control should you wish to retain complete control over the output.

My progression into ASP.NET would not of been as easy and straight forward if I didn't know PHP, PHP will always have a special place for me because it was my first web development language.

So yes, I would say go for it... the way you build pages in ASP.NET is vastly different compared to PHP so don't get too confused by it all.
