Get started with .NET in 10 minutes for Fedora


Install the .NET SDK

Update the products available for installation, install the components required by .NET, then install the .NET SDK.

In your command prompt, run the following commands:

sudo dnf update
sudo dnf install libunwind libicu 
sudo dnf install dotnet-sdk-2.1.105

Create your app

Open a new command prompt and run the following commands:

dotnet new console -o myApp
cd myApp

The dotnet command creates a new application of type console for you. The -o parameter creates a directory named myApp where your app is stored, and populates it with the required files. The cd myApp command puts you into the newly created app directory.

The main file in the myApp folder is Program.cs. By default, it already contains the necessary code to write "Hello World!" to the Console.

using System;

namespace myApp
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");
        }
    }
}

Run your app

In your command prompt, run the following command:

dotnet run

Congratulations, you've built and run your first .NET app!

Get an editor

Visual Studio Code is a free, cross-platform code editor with support for .NET.
For full language support including smart code completion and debugging, get the C# extension for Visual Studio Code.

There are also third party tools for developing .NET apps. JetBrains Rider is a cross-platform .NET IDE built using IntelliJ and ReSharper technology.

Keep learning
Now that you've got the basics, you can keep learning with the .NET Quick Starts. In the first Quick Start you'll learn about collections.
