Add runtime model differences between C# and JavaScript#54004
Merged
Conversation
Adds a small section explaining how C# and JavaScript differ in execution. This helps developers coming from JavaScript or TypeScript understand the runtime model difference between: - JavaScript running on an event loop (like V8) - C# running on the .NET CLR with IL compilation and JIT/AOT execution No existing content was modified, only an additional explanatory section was added.
