That's very confusing. I remember when I was using the original AngularJS everyone called it "Angular".

It's like .Net Framework and .Net Core. It looks the same but Framework was closed source iirc and Core is open source and newer.
And then we have .net 5, which is dotnet core, but they've dropped the 'core' part
Don’t forget .NET Standard. There’s also Xamarin’s Mono flavor, which attempts to implement Framework’s API.

Yeah, it’s a mess. Just remember that .NET 5 is a significant break from legacy and the future.
