Cool thing is .Net Core doesn't run only on Windows.

I do all of my C#.NET development on a Mac.

As for exporting from .NET to Postman though, I actually work the other way around. I try to define the APIs first with their request data, possible responses, etc. You can then generate server / client code from there. However, I do typically write the two separately still.

Right on, I’ll definitely try out C# then from the confort of my home OS :). Do you have a recommended starting point? Meaning a favorite tutorial or book or website?
