Sharepoint development in which language?

Question

I know this may seem a little silly. but am I confused as to which language uses the sharepoint code to use? do they use vb or c #? or can i use either? thanks in advance.

Answer 1

WITH#.

You can use any .net language you want, but a huge number of books, documentation, and sample SharePoint code are in C #. Official samples of the Microsoft SharePoint SDK are only in C #.

You really want to use C # if you need to develop for SharePoint, especially if you are just starting out.

Answer 2

You can use any language supported by the .NET Framework , including Visual Basic and C #.

Answer 3

You will never know for sure. It can be any language that can be compiled into an .Net assembly. I think the advice here is that it is most likely C #, but it would be difficult for someone to say that every code in the product is written in C #.

In short, write what you know and how. If you are just learning and have no preference, stick with C #.

Answer 4

Let's just say that 9 out of 10 use C # as code, although this has not been proven. But the way I evaluate it from the point of view of the community, samples and all those I know. I have not seen anyone use VB as codebehind, but I'm sure there are. In fact, it will depend on what language is comfortable for you, it does not have real requirements for the code that stands as long as it is in .Net :)

Answer 5

I saw some vb.net codebehind, but to be honest, it was more to show that they could also write it in vb.net, than from preferences. I started with vb.net when .net just surfaced and I have to admit that I switched to C # after 3 months and I never regretted it after that :)
