Description
According to the Electron.NET documentation, version 23.6.2 of ElectronNET.CLI should target .NET 8 LTS.
However, after installing the tool, it still creates a net6.0 folder inside the .dotnet/tools/.store/electronnet.cli/23.6.2/.../tools directory.
Steps to Reproduce
- Install the latest CLI:
dotnet tool install ElectronNET.CLI -g --version 23.6.2 - Navigate to:
%USERPROFILE%\.dotnet\tools\.store\electronnet.cli\23.6.2\electronnet.cli\23.6.2\tools\ - Observe that the only framework folder is:
net6.0
Expected Behavior
- The CLI package should provide binaries under
net8.0(since .NET 6 is out of support, and docs mention .NET 8 support).
Actual Behavior
- The CLI package still ships binaries under
net6.0.
Environment
- Windows 11
- .NET SDK 8.0.x
- ElectronNET.CLI 23.6.2
Notes
This seems to be a packaging issue with the CLI NuGet release. Could you please confirm if .NET 8 targeting is planned or if this was overlooked during publish?

No longer applicable. Next version will target .NET 8 specifically (#893).
