      Some subversion of 3, which is fundamental to a lot of software found out in the wild.

      It’s an old version, but even today you can still make new apps that use it, using modern development tools (the latest version of Visual Studio). It’s missing a large number of newer features, but all the essential stuff is available.

          Wow I totally forgot about the compact version. I wrote a few C# apps for Windows Mobile using the compact framework and it worked pretty well. I posted some to XDA-Developers too (e.g. https://xdaforums.com/t/app-htcbutton-beta-change-function-of-wired-headset-button-skip-songs-via-button.492947/ ).
