On Using an Application Framework

One of the things that .NET provides us is a great framework with immense amounts of code tucked away in nice little method calls that we can use. The problem is that one of every two .NET developers I meet has no idea what the .NET Framework actually offers them. What’s worse with some of these developers is that if you were to take away the framework they were using, they would be caught dead in the water. Frameworks are great, but you need to know what they’re actually doing to master them.
