Sandbox and Lab Environment

C#, like any other programming language, is best learned by working hands-on with code.

Easily try code with our "Try it Yourself" editor.

Here, you can edit C# code and view the result:

using System;

namespace HelloWorld
{
  class Program
  {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");    
    }
  }
}

If you want to explore more and host your project, we have a feature called Spaces that allows you to build, test and deploy C# code and other backend languages.

Here you get a secure sandbox environment called Spaces, where you can practice coding and test projects in real-time.

Spaces allow you to test, build, and deploy code. This includes a W3Schools subdomain, hosting, and secure SSL certificates.

Spaces require no installation and run directly in the browser.

Features include:

• Collaboration
• File navigator
• Terminal & log
• Package manager
• Database
• Environment manager
• Analytics

C# Certification

W3Schools offers an end-of-pathway certification program.

Here you can take exams to get certified.

The C# exam is a test that summarizes the W3Schools C# syllabus.

After passing the exam you get the "Certified C# Developer" Certification.

There are two different types of certifications:

• Non-adaptive
• Adaptive

The non-adaptive is pass or no pass.

The adaptive certification is adaptive and graded; students will get a grade from intermediate, advanced to professional.
