Installing .NET Core on Linux

The 2.2 Previews will only be available as tar.gz archives for Linux. Package manager installers will be available on the production feeds for final release. Review Linux System Prerequisites for .NET Core to ensure your system is ready for .NET Core.

Installation from a binary archive

Installing from the packages detailed above is recommended or you can install from binary archive, if that better suits your needs. When using binary archives to install, the contents must be extracted to a user location such as $HOME/dotnet, a symbolic link created for dotnet and a few dependencies installed. Dependency requirements can be seen in the Linux System Prerequisites document.

mkdir -p $HOME/dotnet && tar zxf dotnet.tar.gz -C $HOME/dotnet
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/dotnet
