COM development has largely been superseded by the Microsoft .NET, and Microsoft now focuses its marketing efforts on .NET., with .NET providing wrappers to the most commonly used COM controls. COM is still often used to hook up complex, high performance code to front end code implemented in Visual Basic or ASP. The .NET framework provides rapid development tools similar to Visual Basic for both Windows Forms and Web Forms with just-in-time compilation, back-end code can be implemented in any .NET Language including C#,Visual Basic and C++/CLI.
