If you are looking for the homepage of .NET Core, with getting started guides and downloads for released versions of ASP.NET Core then you should go to http://dot.net. This is the home page of our source code repositories and is intended for those contributing to ASP.NET Core or using bleeding edge nightly builds.

If you want a more stable, released, experience or getting started instructions then go to one of the following:

• .NET Homepage Check out dot.net for released versions of .NET, getting started guides, and learning resources.

• ASP.NET Core Documentation or .NET Core Documentation. We intend to merge these in the future.

If you want to follow along with development of ASP.NET Core then go to:

• Community Standup The community standup is held every week and streamed live to YouTube. You can view past standups in the linked playlist.
• Roadmap The schedule and milestone themes for ASP.NET Core.

Getting ASP.NET Core

• Stable builds of ASP.NET Core should be obtained from http://dot.net.
• If you want to use nightlies then you need to:
  • Obtain the latest nightly CLI from http://github.com/dotnet/cli
  • Add a NuGet.Config to your app with the following content:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
  <configuration>
      <packageSources>
          <clear />
          <add key="AspNetCI" value="https://www.myget.org/F/aspnetvnext/api/v3/index.json" />
          <add key="NuGet.org" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" />
      </packageSources>
  </configuration>
  

  NOTE: This NuGet.Config should be with your application unless you want nightly packages to potentially start being restored for other apps on the machine.
  • Change your applications dependencies to have a * to get the latest version, 1.0.0-* for example.
