The repository and wiki has moved to https://github.com/dotnet/netcorecli-fsc/wiki/

F# and the .NET Core working together.

First a note:

  • .NET Core (coreclr, bcl) is in RC and near RTM
  • .NET Core SDK (tooling) is in preview1, and going to change, but works

The .NET SDK it's language agnostic, so all tutorials should work with F# too.

The .NET SDK is in preview and development is in progress, F# support for .NET Core and dotnet/cli too.

If the project system ( currently project.json ) is going to be replaced, the .NET Core SDK (aka .NET CLI) should remain

This wiki want to track current status ( not working features and workarounds ) and details useful for F#, if someone want to try it before the docs are updated
