Rep:
.NET Core Open Source Update
Quote:
It has been a couple weeks since we last reported on the .NET Core open source project. It's been a very fun time, watching more people get involved in the project and to see progress on a daily basis. It's amazing watching my GitHub news feed. I have to scroll through several page views just to get through the last hour (on a weekday) of corefx, coreclr and roslyn repo activity. Today, we're going to focus on the CoreCLR repo.
In addition to the growing community activity, there have been important product improvements that have been committed. Some of the key changes are coming from the community. That's very impressive. Wow and Thanks.
Linux Support
There is also a lot of great work going into Linux. For example, @mikem8361 is working on getting SOS working on Linux. I already mentioned the stack unwinding feature, based on libunwind.
Like Mac OS X, it is still "early days" for Linux support. That said, we have an enterprising community that likes to try things out. We'll publish official Linux instructions when we've got a good experience in place.
@zerosignal00 was one of the first to try out .NET Core on Linux. There is a lot of enthusiasm for .NET Core support on Linux, too.
