Out of vb.net and asp.net, which language is better?

Question

What I mean is, if a person has to study both, but make a project in either one, which one should he choose?
(PS haven't studied either of them yet)

Answer 1

Basically to write a webpage using VB.net you must convert your VB code over to an ASP.net format. Visual Studio has an excellent tool for doing this so you basically just have to write your application in VB then convert it but avoid using the messagebox.show method because it will not produce errors to the user in ASP instead it will produce errors on the server and the administrator of your application will be pissed because you'll clog up the server with pointless error messages. there are certain other things that have to be changed, like the location o fthe database in the file structure and the location of class files but basically you can create a whole application just using VB then transfer it over to an ASP.net application structure with very minimal changes.

Answer 2

asp .net isn't a language, it is a technology for making web applications like interactive web pages. To use it, you have to use a specil HTML-derived set of elements for the appearance and some .net programming language (and the most often used is vb.net) for the logic.
You should first learn a "normal" programming language like vb.net or java or c# and after that start learning about web development because most courses in web development assume that you know the programming basics and only tell you about web-specific things like sessions and web security. You cannot learn asp.net if you don't know at least one .net language (unless you are an excperienced developer and know a language with a similar syntax to the one your asp.net course is using, then you will be able to learn the .net language in the process).

Answer 3

ASP.NET is not a programming language. It is a technology which helps you build Microsoft Web Applications based on .NET framework. You can code your application using any .NET language like C#, VB.NET, etc...

You can use .NET languages and the .NET framework to build a variety of applications whether web, windows, web services, etc...

You should choose ASP.NET technology if you are interested in developing web applications. You will still need to learn a .NET language to develop your application though.

Hope this helps

Answer 4

It all depends on what you want to program. If you want to program web pages/websites, choose ASP.NET, but if you're wanting to program applications, choose VB.NET. Personally, I would choose ASP.NET. In ASP.NET courses, you learn the general syntax ("sentence" structure) of VB.NET, which you can use later for utility programs, but you also learn the web side of programming.

Answer 5

They are the same langage. VB.net is code for make programs and asp.net is for making interactive webpages.

You can take code from one to the other without modifing it and it will run just fine. Its just a question of how you want to make your interface work. Do you want people to work with your program directly or though a browser?
