Dot-Net-Ecosystem

Hi!

Welcome to the GitHub repository for the .NET Ecosystem - the big picture Pluralsight course. This repository contains the examples for the Pluralsight course: The .NET Ecosystem: The Big Picture.

The solution consists of:

• FrameworkDependantApp
  • A .NET Core console application that depends on .NET Core to be installed on the machine to run
• SelfContainedApp
  • A .NET Core console application that is self-contained and does not depend on .NET Core to be installed on the machine to run
• SimpleXamarinAndroidApp
  • A very simple Xamarin.Android application that shows a single view
• WindowsSpecific
  • A very simple Windows Forms application, based on the .NET Framework 4.7

Running the samples

In order to run the projects in the solution, you need the following:

• Visual Studio 2017
• .NET Core (Get it here)
• .NET 4.7 for the Windows Forms application (WindowsSpecific project)
  • You could also retarget the WindowsSpecific project to a lower version of the .NET Framework
• Xamarin Tools for Visual Studio and the Android SDK.   - In the Visual Studio Installer, select the Mobile development with .NET workload, like in the picture below
