I guess if there is a talent gulf that could definitely be a factor, but I would be leery of jumping on a new platform. More importantly, unless I misunderstand your post, you are potentially not solving the problem of feeling "at the mercy of a 3rd party dev team".

In fact, to reverse engineer your app will you not have to find a new dev team with experience in both node and .net? Unless you are flush with cash, it seems to me like porting to .net core is the thing to do as that seems to be the path of best return.

Of course this does nothing to address what you see as a liability with respect to talent but if you don't have the talent in your company then your problem is going to persist no matter what platform you migrate to.

I am Go/Javascript developer by trade. Once we migrate to nodejs, I am confident that I can jump in and fix urgent bugs if needed. I don't have time to learn .NET due to my other responsibilities. As a result, we are at the mercy of offshore dev shop and have to beg them to deliver quality code.
