    Application Frameworks for .NET

    Hello, We are about to start a big project replacing legacy application with
    an application that will be developed on .NET framework. Some people on our
    team have experience with application frameworks in Java and FoxPro, and
    they want to use some equivalent frameworks in .NET like Spring, CSLA.NET,
    Strata Frame, etc
    I've never used any app frameworks, so My question to you is have you every
    used any of these or other frameworks, what was your experience like? Can
    you recommand a good framework? Do application frameworks really make your
    life easier and cut down the development time, or do they just introduce
    more complexity and issues dealing with someone else's code and bugs?

    I have used good ones with good results and bad ones with a lot of pain.

    Not right off hand, but if your developers like Spring, try nSpring. I am
    personally not thrilled about CSLA.NET, but have not tried it at all for a
    few years. I know plenty of people who are happy with it. I have never heard
    of Strata Frame.

    In general, moving the core boilerplate onto someone else's plate saves you
    time. The same can be said for just about any ORM product, which I would not
    call a framework. If you have devs familiar with the Framework, it makes it
    that much sweeter. If not, you have to consider training time and
    willingness of your devs to train.

      What if the company goes under?

      If the company goes under, a framework would be the last thing on anyone's
      mind I would think. :)
