installable component for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003.
The framework consist of two parts:
An extensive library:
The library consists of pre-coded solutions to address common programming
problems and manages the execution of programs written specifically for the
framework.

Applications written to the .NET framework are compiled into intermediate
code, called
managed code. The Common Language Runtime provides the
appearance of a virtual machine and executes the managed code.
The .NET platform supports a wide range of languages such as J# and C#. The
.NET framework is not supported on any other platforms than Windows.
