The .NET Foundation is an independent, non-profit organization established to support an innovative, commercially friendly, open-source ecosystem around the .NET platform.
The .NET Foundation provides several services to support the open source projects in our community and help them grow.
We work not only with Microsoft, but with the broader industry to increase exposure of .NET's capabilities. All our resources are designed to support developers and your projects, and help promote your endeavors with like-minded folks!
The foundation also lists a number of presentations, workshops, e-books and tutorials from the community.
