Assembly is just a library of your classes. which you can re-use in your multiple projects so that you do not have to write one class each time for each project.

create one assembly and call it everywhere. thats it.

Most of your questions are for c# so here is the link for .net Assembly

In the .NET framework, an assembly is a compiled code library for use in deployment, versioning and security. There are two types: process assemblies (EXE) and library assemblies (DLL). A process assembly represents a process which will use classes defined in library assemblies. .NET assemblies contain code in CIL, which is usually generated from a CLI language, and then compiled into machine language at runtime by the CLR just-in-time compiler.
