GetFramework.Net is a tool for Microsoft .Net Framework application developers to ensure that their customers have the necessary framework during installation. It was created to address a gap in the software development industry.
GetFramework.Net is an innovative software tool designed to cater to the needs of developers who build applications for the Microsoft .Net Framework. Its primary goal is to fill the void left by conventional software installation processes that require the .Net Framework to be installed manually by the user.
Standard setup projects of Visual Studio .Net 2002 or 2003 do not provide an effortless solution to this. Therefore, some developers resort to including the entire 22MB dotnetfx.exe redistributable in their setup package, which is not ideal when the installation is to be downloaded from the web.
Fortunately, several application suites on the market solve this issue, such as linker types that analyze your application and include only the necessary files in the installation. GetFramework.Net takes a different approach; it checks for the existence of the .Net Framework on the client PC, downloads it if not present, and completes the installation.
While there are other solutions on the market, they come with a hefty price tag of $400 to $1500 for a single developer license. GetFramework.Net offers a reasonably priced alternative that solves a reasonably simple problem. If you're a developer looking for an effortless way to ensure that your customers have the necessary .Net Framework installed, GetFramework.Net is an excellent tool to add to your collection.
