That was a lot of predispositions. I can say for sure I've never scaffolded anything in C#, I can write a fully functional web app using Notepad++, the different parts of the startup are not hard to memorize, and I can't imagine scaffolding being useful in a console application.

Yeah, it requires more lines to achieve the same thing in other languages, that isn't a pro or con.

And myself personally, I started with Basic, and have used C++, C, Python, Java, JS and C# throughout my career, but I'm also sure you can find many more Python/Go developers who only know Python/Go

It'a unfortunate you don't like the language and I hope Microsoft and the open-source developers continue to add more features so that one day you'll find the joy may developers have found in using C#

> console application

I wrote a console application to splat some addresses in a hex file with version info and keys. Difficulty you want to be able to diff the files afterwards. Was pretty trivial.
