C# was originally "Java: The Good Parts" but but these days it's a much more advanced language and runtime compared to Java. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Zangoose@lemmy.one 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) As a dev who works on both Java and C# code, modern Java (17+) and C# feel almost exactly the same (not sure if Java has extension methods though). Bonus points for using Kotlin instead tho. I dislike both Java and C# just because they both allow any object to be null and that's usually a headache whenever a null exception shows up. The only thing I like better about C# is the Fixture library for testing. I haven't found any mature libraries like it for Java yet. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] dan@upvote.au 2 points 2 years ago they both allow any object to be null and that's usually a headache whenever a null exception shows up. C# has nullable reference types now: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/nullable-references. If you enable it, you have to explicitly make reference types nullable (like ?string) and you'll get build warnings if you try to use a variable that's potentially null. permalink fedilink source parent [–] aksdb@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago Of course.
