I'm done with endless refactoring of .NET Core updates.

The reality is they shipped RCs with 1.x version numbers.

I will be back to reassess after Core 2.0 gets a minor update.

Microsoft suck at versioning. Progress is great, but we feel tricked.

You are clearly missing other dotnet dependencies. Apt output is mentioning dotnet-sharedframework-microsoft.netcore.app-1.1.1. Anyway I personally would go with docker image, so you won't mess up your system. I've tried microsoft/docker image om example from that arcticle and was successful.

They were pretty clear from the early days that this was WIP, did you never watch a MS presentation?!

This is pretty cool and I was excited to hear about it. But this release also changes the way unit testing integrates with the tooling, so now my suite of 1000+ nunit tests won't run via the 'dotnet test' command, nor in visual studio 2017. If not for that, we would have upgraded today. Eventually the nUnit team will release a test runner that works with the new tooling, but in the meantime, we will stay on preview2…

Is the change documented anywhere? I looked through all the release notes and couldn't find it.

It looks like it wasn't this release that changed the testing. The comments about nUnit not working are from November / January / February:

I saw CONSOLE and ASP profiles .NET Core profiles. Can .NET Core also be used to develop GUI apps?

Not at this stage, if you don't want some sort of pre-beta 1-man project.

Microsoft is not investing so it will have to be community managed.

Through P/Invoke, sure. But WinForms, WPF, and UWP (and Silverlight, and XNA) are not part of .NET Core by-design. Though I assume someone will port Xamarin over, if they haven't done already.

I'd love to see SDL support so OpenRA can have another build target.
