C# does imply .net, just as it implies windows.

Yes, other solutions exist, no those solutions aren't hugely popular in the grand scheme of things.



This has changed a lot, especially over the last couple of years, a lot due to the F# project.

You should look at self-hosted NancyFx or ServiceStack with F# as a good alternative to Node.js

The fact that the "other solutions" aren't popular is probably just because C# is the go to language in windows/.NET shops that already have knowledge and infrastructure. It's not that they are technically inferior.
