If you’ve been using Visual Studio for years like I have, you’ve probably also grown accustomed to the “walled garden” experience that it provides. With .NET Core’s successfuly moves toward being cross-platform support for Linux, Mac, and Windows, the command-line interface (CLI) for .NET Core has become an even more important piece of the puzzle than ever before.

In this session, we’ll work through all the basic workflows for a .NET developer–but all all without the help Visual Studio. By the end, you will be able to create, build, publish, test, run, and package projects, as well serveral other common tasks like database migrations, or using third-party CLI tools.
