    Hi @nickCroat ,
    Please check the following issues.
    Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) support in ASP.NET Core
    Surprise: VB.NET has built-in razor pages, so let's have VB.NET project template for ASP.NET MVC Core!
    Best Regards.

    since India developers took over microsoft they removed the VB and add C# for first IDE dev

    what a waste you are microsoft best thing you do now is close doors and let some one else to run the business

    VB6 was my favorite IDE i used to code over 20 years and now not even see it again

    and now VB net the best code editor ever its EOL and bring C# and phyton what a waste

    i hope one day win the lottery Powerball and build my own code editor company and bring asp net back with VB and show to the world the best Operation System ever made

    Considering that classic ASP was largely a Visual Basic oriented framework, it's surprising to not see ASP.NET Core support for it! My company has too many pages in VB to even want to convert it to C#. If Bill Gates was still in charge VB would not be treated like a redheaded step child. Microsoft instead is pushing C#, and surprisingly F#, (which has a low rate of adoption compared to VB).
