Visual Basic Then and Now: Why VB.NET Still Matters
Visual Basic has one of the longest and most respected histories in software development. Originally introduced in 1964 to make programming more accessible, Visual Basic evolved over decades into VB.NET — a modern, fully object‑oriented language built on Microsoft’s powerful .NET platform.
VB.NET preserves the readability and approachability that made Visual Basic popular, while adding the performance, security, and scalability required by today’s enterprise‑grade systems. It integrates seamlessly with Windows environments, Microsoft databases, cloud platforms, and other enterprise technologies.
VB.NET combines:
- The simplicity and readability of classic Visual Basic
- The power of the .NET runtime for performance and scalability
- Strong security and maintainability built into the Microsoft ecosystem
- Seamless integration with Windows and enterprise systems
