Announcing .NET 7 Preview 1

.NET 7 builds on the foundation established by .NET 6, which includes a unified set of base libraries, runtime, and SDK, a simplified development experience, and higher developer productivity.

But you might be wondering what all the debate is about. So here’s a quick explanation of what is going on.
