Next we want to create a C# dll to host some common code like data access. So our proj file for the console app is simply … Net Core is that it’s had all the gubbins stripped out. If we want a different name to the folder we do that by dotnet new console -n MyProjectName -o Demo.ConsoleAppīut we don’t want that. This installs the console app in a new folder with the same name as it’s containing folder. Net Core 2.0 we get the csproj file rather than the json project file of earlier versions.

This installs our console application project.

Navigate to the root folder and enter your first command Create Console Application dotnet new console -o Demo.ConsoleApp Net Core CLI commands can be entered into the terminal window in VS Code or into the standard command prompt if you prefer. To do this you’ll need VS Code’s C# extension installed into visual studio. Demo.Common/ĭotnet sln add Demo.ConsoleApp/ In case you don’t want to read the detail – the commands used to set up all projects, solutions and references areįrom project root dotnet new console -o Demo.ConsoleAppĭotnet add reference. I enjoy a challenge so using the command line seems fun (to me).

Since we using VS Code and enjoying it’s lightweightness we’ll be relying completely on the new. We need a solution that can build out all these projects in one click. It will look like this when we are finished

A library with data access code that is common to both.

The challenge is to create a solution in VS Code with multiple projects.
