.NET 5

.NET 5 was announced at Microsoft Build 2019. Check out my own Microsoft Build 2019 review.

With .NET 5 we will be able to write apps that target multiple platforms such as Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, Android, tvOS, watchOS and WebAssembly! .NET 5 wil also focus on improved performance (even more than what we have enjoyed with .NET Core v2+), smaller footprints, less memory consumption, and even more features.
