C++ has John Carmack, PHP has Zuckerberg, Lisp has Paul Graham. Does anyone know of any good role models to look up to in the ASP.NET world? As childish as it might sound, that has honestly been a sticking point preventing me to be able to really get into all this.

Anders Hejlsberg Scott Hanselman

But some interesting people to follow are Jimmy bogard, greg young, David Fowler.

Anders Hejlsberg for C# I guess? ASP.NET as a framework doesn't have any 'celebrity personalities' that I am aware of, but then it doesn't really need any. Its a good framework, especially with the dotnet core rewrite; you should try it! Put it on Docker and run it on Linux for fun :)

Has Hejlsberg ever written a book? He must have a lot of valuable insight to share. I think part of the success of C++ and C was that their developers are good writers. K&R is phenomenal and Stoustroup's book are excellent too.

Hejlsberg is a great inspiration for Delphi as well. A person is rarely this influential in multiple domains.

Not sure, aside from his books on the C# language. But the great thing about Hejlsberg and his team is that the evolution of the language is really transparent, and rapid: proposals for C# 8 (possibly 2019/2020): https://github.com/dotnet/csharplang/milestone/8

Are new to programming Already code in a backend stack like Node, Python, Ruby, Go, or Java Are an ASP.NET MVC developer

Consider me sold!. Have been watching .NET Core from the sidelines while I have been "teaching myself" Python. But being constantly on a Windoze systems there is so much more that one could with .net core. Thanks for putting this together.
