@hkarthik I understand getting trapped in the ecosystem. That is a choice I would have to make if I am going into .NET.

By the wall probably it is the Visual studio IDE that is making the learning process easier for me. Probably that is what it is.

You don't have to be trapped in the ecosystem. I made a transition from a .Net ecosystem into Linux + Java a while back. It's hard, but not impossible, especially if you keep up to date with your non-.Net skills.
