NAME
dotnet -- General driver for running the command-line commands
SYNOPSIS
dotnet [--version] [--help] [--verbose] [--info] <command> [<args>]
DESCRIPTION
dotnet is a generic driver for the Command Line Interface (CLI) toolchain. Invoked on its own, it will give out brief usage instructions.
Each specific feature is implemented as a command. In order to use the feature, the command is specified after dotnet, such as dotnet build. All of the arguments following the command are its own arguments.
The only time dotnet is used as a command on its own is to run portable apps. Just specify a portable application DLL after the dotnet verb to execute the application.
OPTIONS
-v, --verbose
Enables verbose output.
--version
Prints out the version of the CLI tooling.
--info
Prints out more detailed information about the CLI tooling, such as the current operating system, commit SHA for the version, etc.
-h, --help
Prints out a short help and a list of current commands.
