The new name is now simple Microsoft dot net | .NET. Formerly it was Microsoft dot NET Core | Microsoft .NET Core. There is still the oldest end of life .NET Framework, which is for Windows Server-based (IIS) Web Apps only. It does not run on Linux web servers, or macOS. Whereas the newest Microsoft dot NET | .NET and it predecessor [[Microsoft dot NET Core | Microsoft .NET Core support not only Windows, but also Linux and macOS.

dot NET Framework

Snippet from Wikipedia: .NET

The .NET platform (pronounced as "dot net") is a free and open-source, managed computer software framework for Windows, Linux, and macOS operating systems. The project is mainly developed by Microsoft employees by way of the .NET Foundation and is released under an MIT License.

New versions of the .NET platform are released annually, typically in November. The most recent version of .NET is .NET 9, released in November 2024, while the current long-term support (LTS) version is .NET 8, released in November 2023 and scheduled to receive updates until November 2026.
