title: Difference between Metadata and Manifest
body: <p>I'm learning .NET framework and been reading through <strong>Metadata</strong> and <strong>Manifest</strong>. </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>"Metadata is data about data and Manifest is data about assembly!!"</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Q: So isn't Manifest a metadata?</p>
  
  <p>Then what are its differences?</p>
