How so? It striked me that the .Net library and Java frameworks like Spring or Quarkus are virtually identical.


There's more to developer experience than that. Your comment even demonstrates one of the differences: The .NET library compared to a bunch of different Java frameworks.


That is indeed a technical difference. But I don’t see much significance in it.

Spring is a de-facto extension of the core java libraries and alternatives like Quarkus follow the same mental model with a better technological foundation.


Maybe, but with all the modern .NET tooling I feel at least 2x productive in .NET than in Spring Boot. There are a lot of quality of life stuff in .NET/C# that really does add up and makes a substantial difference (DX-wise) in the long run.


The culture around Java and C# are very different. I'm not sure I can explain it.

I could continue to point hundreds of technical differences but that's the trees and not the forest.
