.NET Standard includes various versions of things that MS doesn't even touch.
I stopped doing .NET stuff before .NET 5 so I'm not hugely up to date with the latest shenanigans.
It’s just funny for newcomers to peel back the onion more. Writing a source generator? Target .NET standard 2.0 (not even 2.1) for a whole host of reasons.
Visual Basic .net ! What ?
But for the last 20-ish years it's really only been applied to things related to the .NET Framework.
So, yes - Visual Basic.NET is a language - it's the language that replaced Visual Basic 6. It compiles to the Intermediate Language (IL) that the Common Language Runtime (CLR) executes. There are other languages that compile to IL, too like C#, F#.
The .NET Framework is really a bunch of libraries and tools that are packaged together.
The .NET Standard is a standard that allows you to build a library to a known set of supported libraries and IL / CLR features.
So, yes, depending on which specific part you're referring to - it's all of those.
everything is .net, azure, 365, now also copilot.
