First, please define what .Net means. What you will find is that
marketing at Microsoft wanted to brand about 10-20 tools and libraries
into one big scheme.
For instance, part of .Net is the C# development tools, libraries, and
environment.
Also, Active X is part of .Net.
So the question is not nearly complete enough in its current form.
Would Microsoft obscure its development activities such that no-one
could understand it and therefore anything built using it could only
possibly run under a MsWindows environment? The answer to that is
confirmed by the very question you asked. :(
No one here can answer the question. You would have to ask the
developers exactly what they were using to build the app. You see, even
HTML is part of .Net.
