Hey,
Forge is basically deprecated due to multiple reasons - mostly connected to how .NET evolved with the introduction of dotnet
CLI tool:
dotnet new
does project scaffoldingbetterin a way that has become standard in .NET communitydotnet add reference
works out of the box- Paket and FAKE works now as dotnet tools and again, it's a standard way of using such tools in .NET community.
Forge is still used in some cases by Ionide (moving files up/down in fsproj) but I'm planning to move those to our language server (FSAC).
I wouldn't recommend using Forge in 2020 - dotnet
CLI does everything that's necessary for typical development workflow.
