Started off the day a little off topic, prompted by one of the people in the class who currently does WebSphere-based Web development, which went into a long but good digression about Web development using ASP.NET. Very interesting stuff. I may not be a professional Web developer any more, but I am still very much interested in the subject. This would be a prelude to what we would get later in the day.
The 8th module in the course looked at creating Windows-based applications, which, despite my interest in Web-based apps, is important for me to know about for my current work.
But the most interesting section for me was the ASP.NET section, which came at day's end. Now I finally know how it all works, and how C# (or VB.NET) fits into the picture. Understanding the architecture is a big plus for me, as it rounds out my understanding of another set of interpreted web server functions. For me, the code was also the most intuitive -- undoubtedly due to my previous experience in the area -- and I am sure I could use what I've learned and apply it should circumstances arise.
