NET Core with a console application

 Today, I want to talk about the basics of .NET Core with a console application. In case you're not familiar with it, .NET Core is a free, open-source, and cross-platform framework used to build modern, scalable, and high-performance applications. It's especially useful for web applications, but it can also be used for desktop and mobile applications.

The console application is one of the simplest types of applications you can create with .NET Core. It's a command-line interface (CLI) application that takes input from the user and performs a specific operation. It's a great way to learn about .NET Core because it's easy to set up and use.

To create a console application in .NET Core, you need to follow a few simple steps. First, you need to install .NET Core on your machine. You can download it from the official website and follow the installation instructions.

Once you have .NET Core installed, you can create a new console application using the command-line interface. Open a terminal or command prompt and type the following command:

dotnet new console -n MyConsoleApp

This will create a new console application named "MyConsoleApp" in the current directory. You can navigate to the directory and open the project in your favourite code editor.

The console application consists of a single file named "Program. cs". This file contains the "Main" method, which is the entry point of the application. You can write your code inside this method to perform any operation you want.

For example, you can write a simple "Hello World" application like this:

using System;

namespace MyConsoleApp

{

    class Program

    {

        static void Main(string[] args)

        {

            Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");

        }

    }

}

This will print "Hello World!" to the console when you run the application.
