As part of our dotnet cli work we will be needing a new TFM called "netcoreapp" currently with only one version "netcoreapp1.0" which maps to netstandard1.5.

Where can we learn more about this new TFM and how it differentiates from netstandardapp1.5?

@richlander When do we plan to publish the spec for this?

+1 on @bricelam's request. But to add - if the API levels match, why wouldn't it be netcoreapp1.5? Can't we simplify the naming/versioning here to only use one level?

Still working on these docs.

There is a mapping of TFM to metapackage.

  • netstandard -> NETStandard.Library (this is expected to work on all .NET
  • netstandardapp -> NETStandard.App (same as NETStandard.Library + app hosts)
  • netcoreapp -> Microsoft.NETCore.App (this is the .NET Core base install)
