Getting started with .Net Core

.Net Core is an open-source development platform developed and maintained by Microsoft. The main idea behind creation of .Net Core is cross platform compatibility. Let us see how to setup the environment and get started with .Net Core in Windows platform.

The first thing to get started with .Net Core application development is to download the .Net Core SDK from Microsoft website.

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download

Two flavors of .Net core downloads are available in Microsoft’s website.

.Net Core SDK

The SDK download includes all required binaries are libraries to develop, build and run .Net Core applications. This version also includes command line tools for running .Net core applications in command line.  The SDK package also includes the runtime files.

.Net Core Runtime
The Runtime download includes only minimal files which are required for running a .Net Core applications. This version is required in end users machines where we don’t have to do any development or build activity but just execute the applications which was developed using the SDK.

We are planning to develop applications using .Net Core, hence we need to download and install the .Net Core SDK package. Based on the platform Windows / Linux / MacOS different packages are available, we will download and install the windows version of the package. At this time .Net Core 2.2 is the latest stable version of .Net Core available.
