JetBrains is committed to supporting the .NET ecosystem and constantly improving tools for .NET developers.
We do this in part by releasing our annual State of the Developer Ecosystem report, which this year included responses from over 20,000 developers worldwide. This report provides insights into the programming languages, tools, and technologies developers rely on, and highlights key industry trends. The 2024 report spotlights significant changes across several technologies, including Java, Kotlin, Python, Web, .NET, C++, and Rust.
Specifically for .NET, the 2024 report identified two key trends:
The growing adoption of .NET 8 as the new standard.
And considerable excitement around .NET Aspire.
These trends correlate with significant market growth in both primary and overall C# users.
What’s next? JetBrains is now trying to better understand how developers work in .NET development and what tooling they prefer to be more productive.
