Can mendix support .Net or .net core

0
Our existing software gets lot of incoming files from shop floor scanning devices. Each type of scanning device sends files in certain format. We implemented parsing scripts in VB.net to extract meaningful data out of it. Can we reuse these scripts in mendix? What language can be used to write custom code in mendix?

Custom code in Mendix is usually written in Java (Backend) or JavaSycript/TypeScript (FrontEnd).

You can write custom actions on Java or Java SCript

Mendix can’t run VB.Net code directly. You’d need to look at either Java on the server side, or JavaScript on the client side.

Custom code in Mendix is written in Java, there is no support for (VB).Net. However, you may be able to execute your existing scripts in Java, see e.g. this StackOverflow thread. Depending on where you intend to deploy your application, you may run into problems if the chosen solution requires exotic permissions: you can't configure much on the Mendix Cloud, but if you run on premise you shouldn't run into these issues. Before committing to such a solution, I would recommend doing a proof of concept.
