C# 7 and .NET Core 2.0 High Performance

Simplified packaging

With .NET Core, we can add libraries to our project from NuGet. All framework and third-party libraries can be added as NuGet packages. With a large sized application that refers many libraries, adding each library one by one is a cumbersome process. .NET Core 2.0 has simplified the packaging mechanism and introduced meta-packages that can be added as one single package that contains all the assemblies that are linked to it.

For example, if you wanted to work on ASP.NET Core in .NET Core 2.0, you just have to add one single package, Microsoft.AspNetCore.All, using NuGet.

The following is the command that will install this package into your project:

Install-Package Microsoft.AspNetCore.All -Version 2.0.0
