Basically
@cimperia I've always made good money from VB in one form or another especially windows programs over the years, I also create ASP.NET websites. I've decided to learn C# MVC because I need to future proof my myself as I'm a self employed developer and do not want to fall too far behind the trends, I do not work for a company as an employee otherwise I probably would have learned C# MVC years ago. C# uses the M$ .NET Framework and I can then use C#MVC to create modern up to date websites. I can already create database driven websites in ASP.NET, here is an ASP.NET website that I created for a client, the website interacts with a windows ordering system, customer orders on the website and the order appears in my clients Windows invoicing package automatically,

I'm looking to learn C# MVC to future proof myself and my business, plus C# can be used to create modern Windows apps, but then again I will probably keep developing in Windows programs using VB. But saying that, C# is more geared up for modern coding, in a lot of cases more so than VB. Just looking at create a new project in Visual Studio Enterprise 2015 and the amount of options under C# compared to VB is really impressive. I'm not saying that I will use the extra options, but it's always nice to be able to use those extra option in the future, maybe.
Yes with C# and
www.xamarin.com in VS 2015 you can create one project that work across mobile platform (Android and iOS), but to tell you truth I'm really not interested in that, I love my B4x products and
@Erel does a great job with his updating his products, I also enjoy being a part of this great forum. So even though once I learn C# in theory will be able to create Android, iOS and Windows Phones apps in VS 2015, I do not intend to do so as there are no other Android/iOS forums like this one anywhere else on the www, so it would be a complete waste of time doing do.
Learning C# is not as difficult as I first though it would be...
