What is .NET?

• Microsoft's .NET Framework is a technology platform and programming model that provides the ability to efficiently develop, deploy and manage well-architected software solutions.
• The .NET Framework is a structured software development environment that facilitates the efficient creation of complex software applications that are reliable, scalable and extensible by managing memory, security and language integration.

What are the advantages of .NET?

• .NET accelerates development time and lowers project costs by providing a set of unified development tools which enable custom code modules to be re-used within custom applications and across Web-based and Windows-based systems
   
• .NET accelerates development time and reduces the probability of programming errors by providing a large library of pre-coded functional modules.
   
• .NET solutions enable businesses to integrate their systems in a more agile manner and share information across different platforms and operating systems via Web Services (software components which allow separate systems to communicate automatically through standard Internet protocols such as XML).
   
• .NET applications can be easily configured to run on different hardware devices and integrate with external systems without changes to source code.
   
• The structured .NET development environment produces more stable applications with fewer defects and browser compatibility issues.
   
• .NET provides greater compatibility with Microsoft Server and desktop systems and SQL Server databases.
   
• .NET provides strong built-in security and privacy protection.
   

LandersWeb .NET Core Components

In addition to the many advantages of .NET development, LandersWeb has developed our own set of original .NET Core Components to expand the development tool set. LandersWeb .NET Core Components are a library of custom re-usable code for universal functional components such as secure login and database access. These tools leverage and enhance the benefits of .NET to further accelerate development time, increase maintainability and lower project costs.

We continuously expand and improve our Core Components library. The current library includes the following components.

LandersWeb.Commerce
A generic ecommerce implementation with basic shopping cart, product catalog, and checkout processing which can be extended to support more complex ecommerce solutions and additional payment processors

LandersWeb.data
A layer on top of ADO.NET that eliminates much of the repetitive code typically associated with database access

• A custom generation tool based on CodeSmith, LandersWeb.Data generates strongly typed datasets, stored procedures, and ADO.NET
• The entire database design is referenced by the custom generation tool, automatically leveraging the data model for foreign keys, identity columns and timestamps.
• The strongly-typed datasets generated can be used as the basis for custom business objects, with the custom business logic implemented by developers without coding the data layer.

LandersWeb.Forms
A set of interface controls on top of those provided by the .NET Framework

LandersWeb.Security
A set of utilities that manage password hashing, salts and random password generation

LandersWeb.Commerce
A template architecture that defines the user interface in a single location (or template) separate from the application logic Web pages can automatically reference the defined user interface design through inheritance. The UI template can be set at runtime, which is particularly useful for co-branding. The component includes additional custom web controls and security enhancements.
