Hi everyone 👋 I’m new here and focusing on improving my C#/.NET skills.
Quick background: I’m an engineering student in Computer Science & Networks (MIAGE option), graduating in 2025. I’ve worked on several academic and internship projects, including desktop apps in C#/.NET (WPF, Entity Framework, SQL Server), as well as web and mobile development using React Native, Angular, Spring Boot, and Python/Django. I also have some experience with Azure, Docker, and Git.
If you were in my position, with this kind of background, what would you choose to specialize in to boost your career — going deeper into .NET, moving into DevOps, focusing on cloud (Azure), or something else?
I’d really value your advice. Thanks! 🙏

build a portfolio, which will naturally involve working with all those things
build a .net app and set up a ci/CD pipeline to deploy it to a cloud provider, bing bang boom
great idea all in one go. thanks :)
It's kinda tough to say whether you should go into X vs Y because ultimately it's your career. I'd say start with what you prefer to do among those and go from there
That said, since you already have web dev experience, .NET is hardly a bad choice. Probably even a great one
makes sense, I’ll stick with .NET for now, Thanks Ryan
specialize in what interests you the most...
since i don't have much experience in devops i think i should try before choosing no?neither cloud
yes
