View source for .NET Core script

[[Category:dotnet]]
[[Category:CSharp]]

== Installation ==
To install dotnet-script: 
 dotnet tool install -g dotnet-script
Creating a hello world sample
 copy con helloworld.csx

 Console.WriteLine("Hello world!");
 ^Z

== Linux ==
If you were doing this in Linux or OSX you'll need to include a "shebang" as the first line of the script. This is a standard thing for scripting files like bash, python, etc.
 #!/usr/bin/env dotnet-script
 Console.WriteLine("Hello world");
This lets the operating system know what scripting engine handles this file.

== Nuget ==
If you you want to refer to a NuGet package within a script (*.csx) file, you'll use the Roslyn #r syntax:
 #r "nuget: AutoMapper, 6.1.0"
 Console.WriteLine("whatever);

== REPL ==
You can use it as a REPL!  (Read Evaluate Print Loop)
