What is .NET Core

 

.NET Core is a general-purpose development platform maintained by Microsoft and the .NET community on GitHub. It is cross-platform, supporting Windows, macOS and Linux, and can be used in device, cloud, and embedded/IoT scenarios.
The following characteristics best define .NET Core:
  • Flexible deployment: Can be included in your app or installed side-by-side user- or machine-wide.
  • Cross-platform: Runs on Windows, macOS and Linux; can be ported to other operating systems. The supported Operating Systems (OS), CPUs and application scenarios will grow over time, provided by Microsoft, other companies, and individuals.
  • Command-line tools: All product scenarios can be exercised at the command-line.
  • Compatible: .NET Core is compatible with .NET Framework, Xamarin and Mono, via the .NET Standard.
  • Open source: The .NET Core platform is open source, using MIT and Apache 2 licenses. Documentation is licensed under CC-BY. .NET Core is a .NET Foundation project.
  • Supported by Microsoft: .NET Core is supported by Microsoft, per .NET Core Support

Relationship to .NET Standard


The .NET Standard is an API spec that describes the consistent set of .NET APIs that developers can expect in each .NET implementation. .NET implementations need to implement this spec in order to be considered .NET Standard-compliant and to support libraries that target .NET Standard.  
.NET Core implements .NET Standard, and therefore supports .NET Standard libraries.
By itself, .NET Core includes a single application model -- console apps -- which is useful for tools, local services and text-based games. Additional application models have been built on top of .NET Core to extend its functionality, such as:

Hands on Session

 

Get .NET Core Installed

 

http://dot.net/

- Download

- Download .NET Core SDK

 

Use Command-line first

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/dotnet?tabs=netcore2x

 

Create Folder:

C:\dotnetcore\Walkthrough1


Powershell - review commands

- Go to directory

- dotnet

- dotnet –help (get help at top level)

- dotnet –version

- dotnet

- dotnet new –help   (can get help on new)


Build Application

- dotnet new console

- dotnet build

 - dotnet run

 - Confirm working....‘Hello World’

 

Maybe use Sublime


- Maybe change Program.cs File

- Console.WriteLine(args[0]);

- dotnet run testParm


Create another Solution

- C:\dotnetcore\Walkthrough2

- dotnet new razor

- dotnet build

- dotnet run

http://localhost:5000


Now make a mistake

dotnet build

- See error

 

Command line is nice but who does this...

 

Lets next go to Visual Studio Code

- Google with Bing

- https://code.visualstudio.com/


Go to C:\dotnetcore\Walkthrough2

Code . -> Opens Visual Studio Code

Open Folder

Required assets to build and debug are missing from 'Walkthrough2'. Add them?  -- YES!!!

Create your first Windows 10 IoT background app using Visual Studio 2017: Step by step guide

Create your first Windows 10 IoT background app using Visual Studio 2017: Step by step guide Recently, I went as a Sponsor to a .NET Code Camp and one of the raffle prizes we brought was a Raspberry Pi kit.   I was amazed at how many people wanted this device and many of them said they already had them.   They are fairly inexpensive and can be found on a lot of websites.   A few have a lot of capabilities but for this example, you just need a very basic one. I had picked up a Raspberry Pi soon after you could deploy Windows 10 on it and I’ve been slowly playing with it. I thought it would be extremely helpful to show my application logging through a cheap device as well as monitor a process I was running on my server.   Today I’m basically using it as an email generator. I have a process where when my kids create a new gift they want for their B-day, then I have my background process sending an email to everyone in my family members the gift they...

Performance Review Time!

Its  Performance Time ! Over the past 20+ years, I've both gotten performance reviews and given them in many of them too.  As a manager, it’s something you do once per year. Sure, you might do quarterly reviews or semi-annual reviews to make sure associates are on track but everyone cares about the annual review.  They are stressful for both the associate and the manager.  Everyone asks, why I didn't exceed my goals and/or how does this impact my merit increase. Managers have to make extremely tough decision to do what is best both for the organization as well as to meet the budget guidelines we are given. I’d first like to ask the question, do most people even like getting their performance review?  I suspect not.  I’m guessing most would just like to hear the merit increase and move forward. Why? It’s probably because most performance reviews are so poorly given. I admit, I’ve done it myself.  Most performance reviews seem to be rushed. We ...

Unit Test - Given When Then style

Really nice sample I found on the web that Explains the Given-When-Then Syntax style. The Given When Then style correlates closely to the Arrange Act Assert style for unit testing. Here's an example: [Test] public void RotateAngle_Given27Degress_Returns64Degrees() { //Arrange or Given var someAngleClass = new Angle(); //Act or When var result = someAngleClass.Rotate(27); //Assert or Then Assert.That(result, Is.EqualTo(64)); } Thanks:  http://stackoverflow.com/users/445105/joseph
