Short answer: Yes! We're excited about the direction Microsoft is taking .NET, and definitely would like to make sure our SDK supports Core.
Longer answer:
The .NET core APIs are built on the “.NET Standard Library”, which is the common library of APIs meant to be available on all .NET runtimes going forward. The .NET Standard Library is currently a subset of existing APIs from the .NET Framework and some new APIs (introduced with what Microsoft was previously referring to as .NET 5 or ASP.NET 5).
Unfortunately, our current .NET SDK doesn’t work for .NET Core apps because not all of the APIs we call are included in .NET Standard. Almost all of them are, but there are a few we’ll have to find replacements for. Rest assured, we’re actively looking to modify the SDK to target just .NET Standard, and hope to have either a new Core package or a unified .NET package sometime soon. You can follow the effort (or contribute yourself!) at our .NET SDK GitHub repository.
