Cross-Platform : The main advantage of ASP.NET Core is that it’s not tied to a Windows operating system, like the legacy ASP.NET framework. You can develop and run production-ready ASP.NET Core apps on Linux or a Mac. Choosing an open-source operating system like Linux results in significant cost-savings as you don’t have to pay for Windows licenses.
High Performance : It’s also designed from scratch, keeping performance in mind. It’s now one of the fastest web application frameworks.
Open Source : Finally, it’s open-source and actively contributed by thousands of developers all over the world. All the source code is hosted on GitHub for anyone to see, change and contribute back. It has resulted in significant goodwill and trust for Microsoft, notwithstanding the patches and bug-fixes and improvements added to the framework by contributors worldwide.
New Technologies : With ASP.NET Core, you can develop applications using new technologies such as Razor Pages and Blazor, in addition to the traditional Model-View-Controller approach.
