GOD WHAT A POS FRAMEWORK. I HATE YOU S.


Anyone else would like to vent their hatred for this framework.

Any specific downsides on it?

I'd like to look into it a bit more, but I haven't had the time to do so yet..

It's just over complicated sometimes, but in the same sense its overly simple.


Either things you want to do are really easy (good!) or really really hard (bad!).

Most of the time when you want to do something thats "out of the norm" for the framework it ends up feeling like a hack, and not something you want to go into a mission critical site.

I love C# though, its a really fun language to code in... even if it handles nulls and casting in funny ways sometimes (and overloading methods is a PITA).

Probably depends (partly) on what language(s) you're used to, methinks. If you're used to one language, some things might seem awkward when switching to a different one.. At least, that's what I've experienced myself. Not that I'm a seasoned programmer, but still.

Can't really comment on ASP.NET and C# yet though, I'll have to free time for that. Which is hard :)

It's not so much the language as it is the framework.

I'm used to "rolling my own" where I can do anything the language allows.

I feel that even though frameworks help get things done quickly, they have too much of a "one-size-fits-all" mentality.

I can only really +1 that.
