Hello World .Net Core console App with Visual Studio

In the previous posts we saw on how to create a .Net Core console app using command line and using Visual Studio Code. In this post we shall create a .Net Core console app using Visual Studio. To begin with open Visual Studio, select New Project and select the template .Net Core -> Console App.

This will create a solution file, and a folder the files for the console app. The Program.cs file will be similar to the one which we saw in the command line example and VS Code example.

using System;

namespace HelloVS

{

    class Program

    {

        static void Main(string[] args)

        {

            Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");

            Console.ReadLine();

        }

    }

}

Just build and run the solution, a console window will open up and print Hello World in the console.
