    With this tool, you can build cross-platform apps for iOS, Android, and Windows devices by using Visual Studio Tools for Apache Cordova. The easy-to-use installer identifies and installs the right versions of the required SDKs, tools, and libraries that you need to build Apache Cordova apps. Use the Visual Studio debugger to attach to iOS, Android, and Windows apps, hit breakpoints, and inspect code using the console and DOM Explorer. Apache Cordova enables cross-platform development standard web technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

  7. TypeScript

    TypeScript is a language for application-scale JavaScript development. It is included in Visual Studio 2015. TypeScript adds optional types, classes, and modules to JavaScript. TypeScript supports tools for large-scale JavaScript applications for any browser, for any host, on any OS. TypeScript compiles to clean, readable, standards-based JavaScript. TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript that compiles to clean JavaScript output. TypeScript types let you define interfaces between software components and to gain insight into the behavior of existing JavaScript libraries.

    TypeScript has the three features:

    1. Classes
    2. Modules
    3. Decorators

    Classes:
    1. Class C   
    2. {  
    3.     Constructor()

  8. ASP.NET 5

    ASP.NET 5 is a new open-source and cross-platform framework for building modern cloud-based Web applications using .NET. We built it from the ground up to provide an optimized development framework for apps that are either deployed to the cloud or run on-premises. It consists of modular components with minimal overhead, so you retain flexibility while constructing your solutions.

    You can develop and run your ASP.NET 5 applications cross-platform on Windows, Mac and Linux. ASP.NET 5 is fully open source on GitHub.
    ASP.NET 5 applications are built and run using the new .NET Execution Environment (DNX). Every ASP.NET 5 project is a DNX project. ASP.NET 5 integrates with DNX through the ASP.NET Application Hosting package.

    ASP.NET 5 applications are defined using a public Startup class:
    1. public class Startup   
    2. {  
    3.     public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)  
    4.     {}  
    5.   
    6.     public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app)  
    7.     {}  
    8. }  
    The ConfigureServices method defines the services used by your application and the Configure method is used to define what middleware makes up your request pipeline.
