Does this work in .NET Core 2.0?

This package won't install for me into a .NET Core 2.0 project in VS 2017. Is this known. I just get a vague "The given key was not present in the dictionary." error.

Current version of the package targets .NET Framework 4.5 - 4.7 and doesn't not work with .NET Core 2.0. We're working on adding support for .NET Core.

FYI, after reading about the Nuget issues in the VS 15.4 update which were fixed in 15.5 (https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/128974/error-occured-while-restoring-nuget-packages-1.html), I updated my VS to 15.5 and my error went away. Thanks for letting me know it doesn't support .NET Core, though.

@ElvenMonky here's a discussion from another library for how they evolved their package to support .NET Core jwt-dotnet/jwt#72. We should do something similar.

Isn't it a duplicate of #20? @tonysurma's repo follows this approach with slightly better backwards compatibility (.Net Standard 1.1 is compatible with .Net Framework 4.5 and VS 2013). Support of VS 2012 will be dropped anyway, but I think it's ok.

What's the likelihood of updating this to .Net Standard 2.0. I've updated this so I can start using it in .Net Core Azure Functions.
