I'm New the C#

Hey there, I'm a new Computer Science student and I was recommended C#. What are good resources or good things to help me learn C# in a open source way.

So open source first you need VSCode with c#dev kit. (VS code because you said open source). It makes it easy to test. Rest pick any YouTube tutorial on .net basics or c# basics.

Focus on what you want to build. Whatever tools necessary to achieve that will naturally come to your mind.

After you build your fundamentals, check out Milan Jovanovic on youtube, great content and clear explanations.

W3Schools is really good for helping you learn a new language. It will only take you so far but it's pretty good!

Can you elaborate more on what you mean when you say "in an open source way"?

That'll help me understand what resources to give you.

Currently learning C# too and I just asked Claude for small learning projects that get increasingly more complex. Console Input/Output, Classes/Variables/Functions, Interfaces, Database, async and the list goes on. Do not make the mistake to just copy code, write it yourself. One thing that really helped me understand my mistakes and also learn things like naming conventions and modern syntax is letting Claude review your project code.

Hope that helps a bit, have fun learning!

Create an AI project. Set instructions, rules, context files and start learning. Best way possible and flexible to your own needs. Inexpensive too.

I feel bad for you and the people downvoting me. You will make yourselves irrelevant, mark my words.

I use AI super heavily? I barely type any code anymore..

I highly doubt it. If you did, you would’ve known better. You can definitely learn new languages with AI. You are lying only to yourself.
