RTM and Preview 2 bits Preview 4 release - MSBuild based tools
--------------------- ---------------------------------------
To get the latest released bits (RTM for .NET Core and Preview 2 for tooling), As was outlined in the ["Changes to project.json" blog post](https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/dotnet/2016/05/23/changes-to-project-json/), we have started work to move away from project.json to csproj and MSBuild. All the new `latest` releases from this repo (from `rel/1.0.0` branch) are MSBuild-enabled tools.
check out our [Getting started page](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=798306&clcid=0x409).
Also, don't forget to check out [the documentation](https://aka.ms/dotnet-cli-docs). The current official release of the csproj-enabled CLI tools is **CLI Preview 4**.
Changes in issue triaging There are a couple of things to keep in mind:
-------------------------
We are making significant changes to the CLI tooling by supporting MSBuild as the build engine and `csproj` as the project format. You can read ["Changes to project.json" blog post](https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/dotnet/2016/05/23/changes-to-project-json/) for more context. We've realized that this also means that many of the shortcomings of the current tooling will be solved by this move so we've decided to introduce two new labels to indicate that in the issues:
* `msbuild-mitigated` - this label indicates the issue will be mitigated via move to MSBuild. * Preview 4 CLI bits are still **in development** so some rough edges are to be expected.
* `msbuild-notapplicable` - this label indicates the issue will not be applicable after moving to MSBuild. * Preview 4 bits **do not support** project.json so you will have to either keep Preview 2 tools around or migrate your project. You can find more information on this using the [project.json to csproj instructions](https://github.com/dotnet/cli/blob/rel/1.0.0/Documentation/ProjectJsonToCSProj.md).
* Preview 4 refers to the **CLI tools only** and does not cover Visual Studio, VS Code or Visual Studio for Mac.
* We welcome any and all issues that relate to MSBuild-based tools, so feel free to try them out and leave comments and file any bugs/problems.
We will close issues that are labelled with one of these labels. Proactive triaging will help us reduce the number of issues and enable us to focus on issues that require fixing independent of the move to msbuild. ### Download links
