Excerpt
dotnet --help
The --help flag will display help for the lowest-level available based on the dotnet command you’ve typed.dotnet --help gives you broad help about the dotnet command, while dotnet new --help gives you more detailed help about the dotnet new command, and so on.
dotnet new [options]
The dotnet new command is used to create a new project. This function uses the dotnet templating engine, which is continually evolving. It can be found at https://github.com/dotnet/templating.
For example, to create an MVC ASP.NET web site, you would run the following command:
dotnet new mvc
This creates a web site using C# as the language. Adding the --language F# flag will create source code in F#.
dotnet restore
The dotnet restore command will retrieve the dependency libraries needed for your application as defined in the project file. By default, the command will download the libraries from https://www.nuget.org. Note that dotnet restore will run automatically when building an application unless you use the --no-restore flag.
dotnet add
The dotnet add command is used to insert a reference into your project file. While you can, if you wish, manually edit your project file, this command makes it easier to add a reference. For example, if you wish to reference the NuGet package “Json.NET” in your project, you would use the following command:
dotnet add package Newtonsoft.JsonRelated Cheat sheets
