.NET 8 Standalone 50% Smaller On Linux

• Jellyfin

  1,034 29,725 9.9 C#

  The Free Software Media System

  

I serve videos from my home Linux server using Jellyfin[0][1] and previously ran Emby[2] (from which Jellyfin was forked). Jellyfin is written in C# and runs on .Net 7.0.

  7 169 6.7 C#

  Libraries and build tooling to create container images from .NET projects using MSBuild

  

You can also publish .NET apps/services directly as container images [1].

Or you can distribute them as a single file, standalone, "ready to run" application, which precompiles your methods and includes the JIT. This results in a larger executable, but keeps all the functionality, including reflection and runtime code generation, intact.

And, of course, you can install .NET core directly on your Linux system, just as you would for Python or Ruby (where you also don't usually rely on the default installation).

• Navidrome Music Server

  302 9,905 9.4 Go

  🎧☁️ Modern Music Server and Streamer compatible with Subsonic/Airsonic

  

Jellyfin is great for movies & shows. As an anecdote, it's not so good for music if you're a collector. I personally use Navidrome for that[0].

Anyway, Sonarr[1] makes use of .NET, too. Very reliable software, in my experience.

  Smart PVR for newsgroup and bittorrent users.

  

• interactive

  48 2,743 9.6 C#

  .NET Interactive combines the power of .NET with many other languages to create notebooks, REPLs, and embedded coding experiences. Share code, explore data, write, and learn across your apps in ways you couldn't before.

  

I use .NET on Linux and the experience with Rider has been great. The workflow transfers really well between Mac, Windows, and Linux, and everything works the way you expect. The only problems I run into are that there are still things that are Windows focused. For example MAUI does not run on Linux which is a shame because we could use another cross platform GUI.

There are still bugs, for example I ran into one with Polyglot Notebooks not working on Manjaro or Pop!_OS https://github.com/dotnet/interactive/issues/3159

• Cocona

  7 3,013 5.8 C#

  Micro-framework for .NET console application. Cocona makes it easy and fast to build console applications on .NET.

yes its great good for cross-platform cmdline apps, i would recommend using Cocona https://github.com/mayuki/Cocona

• WorkOS

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  

• Nethermind

  56 1,121 9.8 C#

  A robust execution client for Ethereum node operators.

  

41% of EVM nodes on Ethereum run .NET on Linux via Nethermind(https://github.com/NethermindEth/nethermind).

Ethereum has a Market Cap of $249Bn and $34bn of other assets in smart contracts.

So you could say .NET on Linux has under management $116Bn and handles $800m of asset transfers per day, napkin math
