# .NET Core

From ArchWiki

.NET Core is a new FOSS software framework from Microsoft for C#, Visual Basic, and F#. It is designed to be cross-platform, modular and apt for modern applications, as opposed to its predecessor, the .NET Framework.

## Installation

If you only want to run .NET Core managed applications, install the dotnet-runtime package.

To build apps with .NET Core, install dotnet-sdk-2.0AUR as well.

Microsoft recommends using Visual Studio Code , their Electron-based FOSS IDE, to build & debug .NET Core apps.
