.NET Opens Doors
Leveraging .NET with your DBL application offers significant advantages and opportunities
Future-Proof Your Applications with .NET
Synergy .NET is a variation of Synergy DBL designed to integrate with the .NET ecosystem, allowing Synergy developers to write applications that run on the .NET platform.
DBL Meets .NET
Synergy .NET development starts with project templates, which are used to create Synergy projects. These projects can then be used as part of a Visual Studio solution to build applications and libraries. In the code files for your Synergy projects, you’ll use Synergy DBL statements, routines, etc., that are supported for Synergy .NET.
The Synergy/DE components used for Synergy .NET development are
- Synergy DBL Integration for Visual Studio
- Synergy .NET libraries
- Synergy .NET NuGet packages

Visual Studio Development
Synergy DBL Integration for Visual Studio (SDI) enables you to develop with features like IntelliSense, colorization, project wizards, and a powerful debugger. And if your Synergy .NET assembly interoperates with code from other languages, you can debug seamlessly from one language to another.
Nothing But Net
Synergy .NET provides countless benefits.

Productivity
- State-of-the-art IDE support
- Modern language features
- Access to third-party libraries

Interoperability
- Cross-language compatibility
- Web and mobile development

Scalability
- Optimized execution
- Asynchronous programming
- Cloud integration

Future-Proofing
- Ongoing support and updates
- Active community and ecosystem
- Easier recruitment and onboarding
Adopt Easily and Incrementally
We’ve simplified the process of adopting .NET, enabling you to extend your existing business logic to take advantage of new opportunities without overhauling your application or rewriting source code. Your code can remain fundamentally unchanged until you’re ready for new functionality, and then you can convert components as needed. Although your application may use a different runtime behind the scenes, it’s still DBL at its core.

Synergy .NET in Action
Learn how Rural Computer Consultants (RCC) moved their application to Synergy .NET to modernize their UI.
“
Moving to Synergy .NET was a game changer for us. If we hadn’t made that move when we did, the business wouldn’t have grown nearly as fast as it did. We couldn’t have been able to produce code as fast as we can now. We were able to get more developers onboarded and contributing faster. Our competition is two to three times bigger than us, but we’re able to keep up.

Continual Modernization and Synergy .NET Propel Venerable Fuel Industry App to Business Success
RCC created desktop client, mobile, and web front ends using modern UI tools that easily integrated with their Synergy .NET application. Bonus: They found it easier than ever to hire new developers after they moved to .NET and Visual Studio.
