Hi Mr. Chris Ophano, Is it possible to update this package to net.core. please email me at nafberger@gmail.com. we are willing to pay

Hi Nafberger,
I do intend to update to support .net core, but I need the downstream dependencies to be updated first. CsvHelper has several betas for v3 which are on .net standard, but ClosedXml isn't there yet.

Any updates on further plans for .net standard / .net core? ClosedXml has updated to .Net Standard 2.0 if I didn't misread anything. ClosedXml Post

Yes, this is still planned. I have been following the ClosedXml ticket. I've been busy, but I have a lot of the work done converting to netstandard already.
The problem is that CsvHelper only supports netstandard in versions after 3.0, which would require quite a bit of work to support, as 3.0 introduces several new types to implement, most of which is unrelated to Excel support.

Nice work cheers. Awaiting you to update to .net core

Any further progress on implementing .Net Standard / .Net Core support? I've been using CsvHelper in a .NET Core 2.1 app and would love to be able to add Excel parsing as an option.

Is support .Net Core WIP? Do you have a branch for it?
Can other people use it and be involved in migration?
Is PR #18 Good enough to be used?

@MNF
You can try it in the active fork.
